[3]

These specimens were obtained by Joseph Leidy , who described and named them in 1856; two of the several species named were Trachodon mirabilis of the Judith River Formation and ...
Saurolophus was an important early reference for other hadrosaurs, as seen in the names of Prosaurolophus ("before Saurolophus") and Parasaurolophus ("near Saurolophus"). However, little additional material has been recovered and described. Instead, more abundant remains from Asia have provided more data.
Description of new fossil material of Pararhabdodon isonensis, and a study on the bone histology and life history of this taxon, is published by Serrano et al. (2020). [84] A study on the morphology and likely causes of the injuries in the holotype specimen of Parasaurolophus walkeri is published by Bertozzo et al. (2020). [85]

It was also a woman's favourite name (1 Chronicles 8:9; 2 Kings 12:1; 2 Chronicles 24:1; Acts ...
It was discovered in 1921 near Steveville, Alberta, by Charles Mortram Sternberg, who thought it was a new species of Gorgosaurus. It was not until 1970 that the specimen was fully described by Dale Russell , who made it the type of a new genus, Daspletosaurus , from the Greek δασπλής ( dasplēs , stem and connective vowel resulting in ...
