A newly discovered species of toothless, two-fingered dinosaur has shed lighton how a group of parrot-like animals thrived more than 68 million years ago.The unusual species had one less finger on each forearm than its closerelatives, suggesting an adaptability which enabled the animals to spreadduring the Late Cretaceous Period.
Multiple complete skeletons of the newspecies were unearthed in the Gobi Desert in Mongolia by a University ofEdinburgh-led team.
