| 0:32.9 | Hello and welcome to I know Dino. |
| 0:33.8 | I'm Garrett. |
| 0:34.8 | And I'm Sabrina. |
| 0:42.3 | And today we have a lot of news to talk about, as well as our dinosaurs today, desolitosaurus. |
| 0:52.1 | So first in the news, I just want to correct or maybe clarify some of the things we talked about in earlier episodes about brannosaurus slash potosaurus. |
| 0:58.2 | So looking deeper into it, specifically looking at the peer review journal article by Emmanuel Shop called a specimen-level phylogenetic analysis and |
| 1:05.2 | taxonomic revision of depleticay. So really the whole purpose of this article was to look at all the de Plaudicay |
| 1:12.7 | species in genera and more generally talk about how they were related to one another and possibly |
| 1:18.5 | refine some of the details. We've talked about taxonomy before on the podcast. When we first |

| 1:57.2 | So this brannosaurus story is really just one of thousands of these stories that you |
| 2:05.4 | could find. And the only reason that it made a ton of news was because Brontosaurus is such a well-known |
| 2:11.5 | name. So going back to the article, Brannosaurus was never completely excluded from existence. In popular |
| 2:21.0 | culture, it's believed that Bronosaurus was created by taking an apodosaurus and putting a |
| 2:27.8 | Camarasaurus skull on it. And we might have even said that on this podcast. And there is one case where |
| 2:33.3 | that was done. The Yale Peabody Museum for a time had an |
