In dinosaur news this week:

- Another abelisaurid, Niebla, was found in Argentina with more typical theropod jaw than later abelisaurids
- A new small tyrannosauroid from China, Jinbeisaurus, supports that the first giant tyrannosaurs were in North America
- The new tiny compsognathid, Xunmenglong, makes Compsognathus look like a giant
- There’s a push to make the (dubious) dinosaur Suciasaurus rex the official state dinosaur of Washington
- Leu Gardens in Orlando, Florida has a "Dinosaur Invasion" exhibit from now until April
