Hello, world!

Here the presence of melanosomes — characteristic bodies that give feathers their colour — is demonstrated in feathers and feather-like structures of fossil early birds and dinosaurs from the Early Cretaceous Jehol Group of China. Not only is it shown that the feather–like structures of dinosaurs such asSinosauropteryx really are akin to feathers, it is also possible to speculate in an informed way about their colour.
