A new ankylosaurid dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous (Kirtlandian) of New Mexico with implications for ankylosaurid diversity in the Upper Cretaceous of western North America. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 A new ankylosaurid (Ankylosauria: Dinosauria), Ziapelta sanjuanensis, gen. et sp. nov., is based on a complete skull, an incomplete first cervical half ring, a possible fragment of the second cervical half ring, and additional fragmentary osteoderms. The

, 2022 Ankylosauria indet. (Fig. 23 A-C) DESCRIPTION The ankylosaurs are only represented in Angeac-Charente by a single tooth (ANG15-3980) and an osteoderm (ANG18- 6585). The tooth (Fig. 23A, B) was collected in 2015 from the unit 3 of the CG3 plot. The osteoderm (Fig.

Microstructure and development of the dermal ossicles of Antarctopelta oliveroi (Dinosauria, Ankylosauria): A complex morphogenetic system deciphered through three-dimensional X-ray microtomography [PDF]
Journal of AnatomyAbstractAnkylosaurs were a group of heavily armored non‐avian dinosaurs (Dinosauria, Ankylosauria), represented by a relatively abundant fossil record from the Cretaceous of North and South America. Their dermal skeleton was characterized by large osteoderms whose development and functional role have been largely investigated.

Intraspecific Variation in the Armoured Dinosaurs (Dinosauria: Ankylosauria)
, 2015 Here I assess sources of intraspecific morphological variability in the armoured dinosaurs (Dinosauria: Ornithischia: Ankylosauria), approached from the viewpoints of ontogenetic allometry, fossil bone histology, and individual variation. Juvenile specimens of Pinacosaurus grangeri Gilmore, 1933, demonstrate strong positive allometry in features of ...

Long bone histology and growth patterns in ankylosaurs: implications for life history and evolution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The ankylosaurs are one of the major dinosaur groups and are characterized by unique body armor. Previous studies on other dinosaur taxa have revealed growth patterns, life history and evolutionary mechanisms based on their long bone histology.

A new ankylosaurine dinosaur from the Judith River Formation of Montana, USA, based on an exceptional skeleton with soft tissue preservation [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 The terrestrial Judith River Formation of northern Montana was deposited over an approximately 4 Myr interval during the Campanian (Late Cretaceous). Despite having been prospected and collected continuously by palaeontologists for over a century, few ...

Convoluted nasal passages function as efficient heat exchangers in ankylosaurs (Dinosauria: Ornithischia: Thyreophora). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Convoluted nasal passages are an enigmatic hallmark of Ankylosauria. Previous research suggested that these convoluted nasal passages functioned as heat exchangers analogous to the respiratory turbinates of mammals and birds. We tested this hypothesis by
