The incomplete skeleton of Cetiosauriscus stewarti (BMNH R3078) mounted prior to display in around 1903. Photographed in the BMNH, and reproduced courtesy of the Leeds family, with layout by J. J. Liston. Note the similarity of this photograph to the drawing of the skeleton in Woodward (1905); previously figured in Anon. (1924) and Naish & Martill (2008).[1][2]

Skeletons of Bonatitan and Austroraptor at the Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales Bernardino Rivadavia

Herbivorous dinosaur found in the Al-khoudh area. This dinosaur is similar to the Zalmoxes and Rhabdodon dinosaurs. The skeleton in the Bait Al Baranda Museum was assembled from bones borrowed from several museums.

Rates of skeletal character evolution in the skull and postcranial skeleton of hadrosauroids. Cladograms illustrate the results from branch likelihood tests for two morphological partitions: skull (cranium and mandible) (A) and postcranial skeleton (B). In both cladograms, results from the branch likelihood tests are summarized on a strict consensus tree derived from four separately analyzed MPTs, each with 100 dating replicates (a total of 400 Hedman-dated phylogenies). Pie charts on branches illustrate the proportion of dating replicates that showed significantly high rates (red), slow rates (blue), or nonsignificant average rates (white). No pie charts are plotted on branches that showed nonsignificant rates in 100% of dating replicates. Branches that showed high rates (red) in more than 50% of dating replicates are doubled in length. See the Supplementary Material for Hedman-based results plotted separately for each MPT (Supplementary Fig. S2) and for results using the MBL dating method (Supplementary Fig. S3). Silhouettes were created by Scott Hartman and were downloaded from http://phylopic.org (Creative Commons license CC BY 3.0).
