Dinosauria

Right hind limb of the sauropodomorph dinosaur Musankwa sanyatiensis gen. et sp. nov. (NHMZ 2521) from the Pebbly Arkose Formation (Norian, Upper Triassic) of Spurwing Island, Zimbabwe. A. Right femur in posterior (A1), lateral (A2), anterior (A3), medial (A4), proximal (A5), and distal (A6) views. B. Right tibia with conjoined astragalus in anterior (B1), lateral (B2), posterior (B3), medial (B4), and proximal (B5) views.

Reconstruction of Tuebingosaurus maierfritzorum gen. et sp. nov. as a quadruped dinosaur, using the outline of Riojasaurus as a base ‒ next to the silhouette of Friedrich von Huene. The drawing of the bones is based on and modified from the original illustrations of specimen “GPIT IV” in von Huene (1932, pl. 38) that have been replicated in the literature. The right fibula is marked in grey as it was found nearby with similar measurements to the left fibula and has been assumed to be part of the same individual.

Reconstructed skull of Jaxartosaurus aralensis Riabinin, 1937. Only a posterior portion of the skull, as well as a surangular is known, with the rest of the skull being based mostly upon File:Aralosaurus skull.png. Jaxartosaurus is currently classified as a basal lambeosaurine, more derived than Aralosaurini, but more primitive than Parasaurolophini and Lambeosaurini. It might be more derived than Tsintaosaurini (Godefroit et al., 2004). References: Riabinin, A.M. (1937). "A New Finding of Dinosaurs in the Trans-Baikal Region". Ezhegodn. Vserossijskogo Palaeont.

Coelophysis bauri (Cope, 1887) theropod dinosaur from the Triassic of New Mexico, USA. This is a remarkable complete skeleton of the small early theropod Coelophysis. It comes from a nearly monospecific concentration of numerous complete to disarticulated skeletons in reddish-colored fluvial siltstones, often called a "Coelophysis graveyard". This occurrence has been interpreted as a carcass-jammed channel filling following mass mortality of dinosaurs by regional drought (see Schwartz & Gillette, 1994). Stratigraphy: Rock Point Member, Chinle Formation, Upper Triassic Locality: Whitaker Quarry (Coelophysis Quarry), Ghost Ranch, Rio Arriba County, northern New Mexico, USA Some info. from: Hunt, A.P. & S.G.

Geology and taphonomy of the Coelophysis Quarry, Upper Triassic Chinle Formation, Ghost Ranch, New Mexico. Journal of Paleontology 68: 1118-1130. Theropod were small to large, bipedal dinosaurs. Almost all known members of the group were carnivorous (predators and/or scavengers). They represent the ancestral group to the birds, and some theropods are known to have had feathers. Some of the most well known dinosaurs to the general public are theropods, such as Tyrannosaurus, Allosaurus, and Spinosaurus.

Caririchnium leonardii - dinosaur track from the Cretaceous of Colorado, USA. (replica; public display, Red Rocks Amphitheater visitor center, west of Denver, Colorado, USA) Dinosaur Ridge, Colorado has numerous dinosaur fossils, including bones and tracks. The most common track type at the site is Caririchnium leonardii, which was made by an iguanodontid dinosaur. The large, wide, three-toed print was produced by a hindfoot.
