New hadrosaurid dinosaurs from the middle Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) of Sonora (Mexico) extend the South American kritosaurin lineage to southern Laramidia

open access: yesJournal of Systematic Palaeontology
The non-marine deposits of the Campanian–early Maastrichtian Cabullona Group (north-eastern Sonora, north-western Mexico) have yielded abundant fossils of continental vertebrates, including dinosaurs. However, this dinosaur fauna has yet to be studied in detail. We describe three partial hadrosaurid specimens from two localities (Arroyo del Alamito and

New Geochronological Age Constraint and Chemostratigraphy for Aptian Lacustrine Strata, Cedar Mountain Formation, Utah

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023
Abstract The Early Cretaceous is an important time of transition in Earth history, marked by a succession of oceanic anoxic events and carbon cycle perturbations that drove changes on land and in the ocean. The need for more precise geochronologic constraints in terrestrial sediments of Early Cretaceous age that record faunal and floral transitions is ...

A Problematic Tyrannosaurid (Dinosauria: Theropoda) Skeleton and Its Implications for Tyrannosaurid Diversity in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation (Upper Cretaceous) of Alberta

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 303, Issue 4, Page 673-690, April 2020., 2020
ABSTRACT Several published censuses have noted the presence of two tyrannosaurids, Daspletosaurus sp. and Albertosaurus sarcophagus, within the Upper Cretaceous Horseshoe Canyon Formation of Alberta. Although A. sarcophagus is known from more than a dozen major discoveries in these strata, Daspletosaurus sp.

Cranial anatomy and stratigraphy of a new specimen of the tyrannosaurine dinosaur Daspletosaurus from the Judith River Formation of Central Montana, USA [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
The tyrannosaurine Daspletosaurus contains three recognized species from the Campanian of Montana and Alberta: Daspletosaurus torosus, Daspletosaurus wilsoni, and Daspletosaurus horneri. The recently named D. wilsoni has been proposed to represent a

Skull ecomorphology of megaherbivorous dinosaurs from the dinosaur park formation (upper campanian) of Alberta, Canada. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Megaherbivorous dinosaur coexistence on the Late Cretaceous island continent of Laramidia has long puzzled researchers, owing to the mystery of how so many large herbivores (6-8 sympatric species, in many instances) could coexist on such a small (4-7 ...

New insights into chasmosaurine (Dinosauria: Ceratopsidae) skulls from the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) of Alberta, and an update on the distribution of accessory frill fenestrae in Chasmosaurinae [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Chasmosaurine ceratopsids are well documented from the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) Dinosaur Park Formation (DPF) of southern Alberta and Saskatchewan, and include Chasmosaurus belli, Chasmosaurus russelli, Mercuriceratops gemini, Vagaceratops irvinensis,

Temporal range extension and evolution of the chasmosaurine ceratopsid ‘Vagaceratops’ irvinensis (Dinosauria: Ornithischia) in the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) Dinosaur Park Formation of Alberta

open access: yesVertebrate Anatomy, Morphology, Palaeontology, 2019
The Dinosaur Park Formation (DPF) has a diverse assemblage of chasmosaurines currently represented by Chasmosaurus belli, C. russelli, Vagaceratops irvinensis, and Mercuriceratops gemini, and may also include remains possibly referable to Spiclypeus ...
