New wallaby-sized dinosaur identified from fossils found along Victorian coast

Fossilised jawbones found in rocks along Victoria's Gippsland coast have been identified as belonging to a new species of plant-eating dinosaur the size of a wallaby that would have roamed the land between Australia and Antarctica.

Galleonosaurus dorisae is just the second dinosaur of its type to be identified from the 125-million-year-old rock platforms south-east of Melbourne — and the fifth from along the Victorian coastline.
