Dinosaur tracks have a long history of discovery and study in the UK, but track sites for sauropodomorph dinosaurs-the group that included the giant, graviportal herbivorous sauropods-are comparatively rare. Here, we provide a description of a sauropod dinosaur track site at Spyway Quarry in Dorset, southern England. The tracks at Spyway were discovered in the late 1990s and occur in the Stair Hole Member of the Durlston Formation in the Purbeck Limestone Group, of earliest Cretaceous age.

Patients And Methods: Between 2004 and 2020, five patients (4 boys and 1 girl) were managed at our centre for urothelial cell carcinoma of the bladder. Data was collected by note review for age at presentation, symptoms, clinical findings, investigations, treatment and follow-up.
Article Synopsis
- Conservation planning usually focuses on either protecting where species live or making sure they can move between areas, but not both at the same time.
- A new method was created to help protect wildlife, forests, and carbon, while also allowing animals to move around better.
- In Sabah, Malaysia, this method helped to increase the protection of places animals use to travel by a lot, while only slightly reducing the protection of carbon trees and butterflies.
Habitat connectivity is important for tropical biodiversity conservation. Expansion of commodity crops, such as oil palm, fragments natural habitat areas, and strategies are needed to improve habitat connectivity in agricultural landscapes. The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) voluntary certification system requires that growers identify and conserve forest patches identified as High Conservation Value Areas (HCVAs) before oil palm plantations can be certified as sustainable.
