Size comparison of P. cyrtocristatus (left, violet) and P. walkeri (right, blue) Like most dinosaurs, the skeleton of Parasaurolophus is incompletely known. The length of the type specimen of P. walkeri is estimated at 9.45 metres (31.0 ft), [ 22 ] and allometry-based body mass estimates indicate that a 9 metres (30 ft) long individual would ...

English: Size comparison of the two better-known species of the North American hadrosaurid dinosaur Parasaurolophus, P. walkeri (type species, blue) and P. cyrtocristatus (fuchsia). The ornithopod silhouettes are based on their respective skeletals by Scott Hartman.
The size of the two Saurolophus species compared to humans Saurolophus is known from material including nearly complete skeletons, giving researchers a clear picture of its bony anatomy. S. osborni , the rarer Albertan species, was around 8.2–8.5 m (27–28 ft) long, with its skull 1.0 m (3.3 ft) long.
Size comparison of selected giant sauropod dinosaurs. The sauropods' most defining characteristic was their size. Even the dwarf sauropods (perhaps 5 to 6 metres, or 20 feet long) were counted among the largest animals in their ecosystem. Their only real competitors in terms of size are the rorquals, such as the blue whale.
Size comparison of a human to Q. northropi (green) and Q. lawsoni (blue) In 1975, Douglas Lawson compared the wing bones of Quetzalcoatlus northropi 's holotype to equivalent elements in Dsungaripterus and Pteranodon , and suggested that it represented an individual with a wingspan of around 15.5 m (51 ft), though presented alternative ...
CT scan of the skull of P 14357, holotype of Andalgalornis ferox in the collections of the Field Museum of Natural History Comparison of different phorusrhacid skulls. In the past, these birds were thought to have high beaks, round orbits, and vaulted braincases [25] though there was never enough empirical evidence to support this. However, new ...
Size comparison. Prosaurolophus was a large-headed duckbill; the most complete described specimen has a skull around 0.9 metres (3.0 ft) long with its body size measuring 8.5 metres (28 ft) in length and 3 metric tons (3.3 short tons) in body mass.
