Dinosaur of the day Saichania, an ankylosaur known for its pretty face.

In dinosaur news this week:

• There’s a new ceratopsian dinosaur, Sasayamagnomus saegusai
• There’s a new titanosaur sauropod, Qunkasaura pintiquiniestra
• Damage to a number of tails may mean the sauropodomorph Plateosaurus often had to live with its injuries
• Long necked dinosaurs did care! The basal sauropodomorph Lufengosaurus probably took care of and fed its young
