Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins' mounted Hadrosaurus, the first mounted dinosaur skeleton in the world Photograph of the site where the fossils were found (2010). In 1838, John Estaugh Hopkins was digging in a marl pit (on a small tributary of the Cooper River in Haddonfield, New Jersey, and part of the Campanian-age Woodbury Formation) when he uncovered large bones.
This clade excludes basal hadrosaurids such as Hadrosaurus and Yamatosaurus but self-destructs if Hadrosaurus is descended from the last common ancestor of Lambeosaurus and Saurolophus. [21] Premaxilla of Eotrachodon, the taxon named by Prieto-Marquez et al. 2016. Below is a cladogram from Prieto-Marquez et al. 2016. This cladogram is a recent ...
Hadrosauroidea was given a formal phylogenetic definition in the PhyloCode by Daniel Madzia and colleagues in 2021 as "the largest clade containing Hadrosaurus foulkii, but not Iguanodon bernissartensis". [1] The cladogram below follows an analysis by Andrew McDonald, 2012, and shows the position of Hadrosauroidea within Styracosterna: [2]
Parasaurolophus, a crested hadrosaur.. Hadrosaurids, also commonly referred to as duck-billed dinosaurs or hadrosaurs, were large terrestrial herbivores.The diet of hadrosaurid dinosaurs remains a subject of debate among paleontologists, especially regarding whether hadrosaurids were grazers who fed on vegetation close to the ground, or browsers who ate higher-growing leaves and twigs.
The Hadrosaurus foulkii Leidy Site is a historic paleontological site in Haddonfield, Camden County, New Jersey.Now set in state-owned parkland, it is where the first relatively complete set of dinosaur bones were discovered in 1838, and then fully excavated by William Parker Foulke in 1858.

Tsintaosaurus (/ s ɪ n t aʊ ˈ s ɔː r ə s /; sic for the old transliteration "Tsingtao", [2] meaning "Qingdao lizard") is a genus of hadrosaurid dinosaur from China. It was about 8.3 metres (27 ft) long and weighed 2.5 tonnes (2.8 short tons). [3] The type species is Tsintaosaurus spinorhinus, first described by Chinese paleontologist C. C ...
Protohadros (meaning "first hadrosaur") is a genus of herbivorous ornithischian dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian stage).. Gary Byrd, a part-time palaeontologist, discovered some remains of this euornithopod (ribs and an ungual) during early 1994 at Flower Mound, Denton County, north-central Texas.
