Jaw Mechanics in Basal Ceratopsia (Ornithischia, Dinosauria) [PDF]

open access: yesAnatomical Record, 2009
AbstractCeratopsian dinosaurs were a dominant group of herbivores in Cretaceous terrestrial ecosystems. We hypothesize that an understanding of the feeding system will provide important insight into the evolutionary success of these animals. The mandibular mechanics of eight genera of basal ceratopsians was examined to understand the variability in ...

Key to Protoceratopoid vertebrae (Ceratopsia, Dinosauria) from Mongolia

Paleontological Journal, 2007
A detailed nomenclature and a measurement system for vertebrae of Mongolian Protoceratopoidea are proposed. A key to vertebrae that allow the determination of the region of the vertebral column and the serial number of each vertebra within each region is developed.

Phylogenetic position of Turanoceratops (Dinosauria: Ceratopsia)

Naturwissenschaften, 2009
Farke et al. (2009) commented on our recent paper describing new material of the Late Cretaceous ceratopsian dinosaur Turanoceratops from Uzbekistan (Sues and Averianov 2009). We provided evidence that Turanoceratops is the first member of the clade Ceratopsidae known outside North America. Farke et al.

Ceratopsia increase: history and trends

Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2013
The taxonomic history of the Ceratopsia began in 1876 with the description of Monoclonius crassus Cope followed in 1889 by Triceratops horridus Marsh. After a peak of discovery and description in the 1910s and 1920s resulting from the Canadian dinosaur rush in the province of Alberta and the Central Asiatic Expeditions to Mongolia of the American ...

Morphology of the Craniovertebral Joint in Psittacosaurus sibiricus (Ornithischia: Ceratopsia)

Paleontological Journal, 2018
The joint of the occipital skull region and two first cervical vertebrae of Psittacosaurus sibiricus from the Shestakovo locality (Barremian–Aptian), Kemerovo Region, Russia is described. The morphological differences in the atlas–axis complex between the infraorders Psittacosauria and Neoceratopsia connected with their functional features are revealed.

Morphology and Histology of Lattice‐like Ossified Epaxial Tendons inPsittacosaurus(Dinosauria: Ceratopsia)

Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, 2010
Abstract:Epaxial tendons play an important role in the study of the musculoskeletal system and locomotory style of dinosaurs. Although the ossified epaxial tendon lattice is fairly well known in Iguanodontoidea, only recently has knowledge of this complex been extended to ceratopsians.

A new neoceratopsian (Ornithischia, Ceratopsia) from the Lower Cretaceous Ohyamashimo Formation (Albian), southwestern Japan

Papers in Palaeontology
Abstract The herbivorous dinosaur clade Ceratopsia flourished in the northern hemisphere during the Late Jurassic to Late Cretaceous. Previous palaeobiogeographic studies have suggested that their initial diversification occurred in Asia, with early‐branching neoceratopsians extending their geographical range to ...
