Palaeontologists at the University of Malaya have discovered what they say is the first known fossil of dinosaur to be found in Malaysia."We have started our collaboration and carried out field expeditions to search for potential dinosaur deposits in Malaysia since September 2012. Recently, we have successfully confirmed the presence of dinosaur remains (fossilised teeth) in Pahang," lead researcher Dr. Masatoshi Sone said in a statement. One of the fossils, Sample UM10575, has been identified as a tooth of Spinosaurid theropod, the carnivorous dinosaur that evolved during the Late Jurassic and became abundant in the Early Cretaceous age. The researchers found the remains of dinosaur in the rural interiors of the Malaysian state of Pahang.
