Ahshislesaurus

Dalman et al. 2025

Ahshislesaurus is an extinct genus of saurolophine hadrosaurid dinosaurs known from the Late Cretaceous of what is now New Mexico, United States. It is known from a partial skull and three neck vertebrae discovered in 1916 and first described in 1935. Prior to its scientific naming, researchers debated whether the specimen belonged to Kritosaurus navajovius, a related species from the same layers of rocks, or a distinct animal. The genus contains a single species, Ahshislesaurus wimani, named in 2025. A partial skeleton and isolated limb and girdle bones found in the same rock layers may also belong to Ahshislesaurus.
