"Duckbill #dinosaurs, or #hadrosaurids, were highly successful #herbivores that staged a major radiation in the Late #Cretaceous epoch... The presence of a hadrosaurid in Africa is perplexing, because Africa had been isolated by deep seaways since the mid-#Jurassic"

"Although the material is fragmentary, the new species from #Texas indicates that basally-branching #hadrosaurids were also distributed in southern #Laramidia, in addition to #Appalachia and #Eurasia, evidencing the widespread occurrence of these early #hadrosaurid lineages in the northern hemisphere spanning the uppermost #Santonian through the Upper #Maastrichtian."
