Abstract: Intense exploration of the late Cretaceous (~85 Ma) Niobrara Chalk began shortly after the Civil War, with Bone-War rivals Charles Marsh and Edward Cope describing dozens of species of fish, mosasaurs and pterosaurs before the turn of the last century. Work was so intense that by the early 20th century interest waned, with researchers believing that everything important had already been found.

Today, renewed intensive fieldwork with improved collection and preparation methods are revealing that even this famous and well sampled formation has more secrets left to give up, from soft tissue and molecular info to many brand new species.
