“The new species, now named “grey skull” in the South African Xhosa language, had originally been categorised as a slightly odd specimen of Massospondylus carinatus, one of many items in the Evolutionary Studies Institute (ESI) collection at the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa.

More than 40 years after the remains were found, experts have now come to the conclusion that these bones don’t belong to M. carinatus at all. Detailed computed tomography or CT scans have revealed key differences between the species.
