Polycotylus latipinnis specimen (LACM 129639) containing a fetus on display at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County.

The nodosaurid dinosaur, Glyptodontopelta is mostly known from isolated osteoderms ("armor plates"). The specimen SMP VP-1580 (State Museum of Pennysylvania) is however, the most complete known specimen, comprising parts of the skull, hundreds of osteoderms and fragments. This specimen was discovered in 2003 by Warwick Fowler, in the Naashoibito Member of the Ojo Alamo Formation (Maatrichtian, Late Cretaceous) of the San Juan Basin, New Mexico, during an expedition led by Dr. Robert Sullivan.

The skull of a Chasmosaurus mariscalensis, on display at the Texas Memorial Museum. Chasmosaurus was a Cretaceous ceratopsian of North America. This specimen was discovered in Brewster County, Texas.

The official postcard (of the American Museum of Natural History) says this is a Barosaurus, and that "this unique freestanding mount is the only Barosaurus on view in the world". This was true until the installation of another Barosaurus specimen at the Royal Ontario Museum. The adult specimen pictured is AMNH 6341, classified as Barosaurus lentus. The juvenile specimen (AMNH 7530), originally classified as a juvenile Barosaurus, has since been reclassified as a specimen of Kaatedocus siberi.

Otozoum tracks in the Dinosaur State Park and Arboretum, Rocky Hill, Connecticut, USA. The exhibit sign reads: "These large negative tracks were made by a heavy animal that walked on four toes and had a short stride. It may have been a prosauropod. All of these tracks have rare skin impressions. This specimen was removed from the Portland Quarry in 1896. Donated by Wesleyan University."

Morphological variation in the Deltapodus ibericus holotype trackway from the CT-1 tracksite. (a) False-color depth maps and interpretative outline drawings of a selection of manus–pes sets within the trackway. Note the variation in manus (from crescent, kidney to semicircular shapes) and pes (reversed delta, semirectangular, and oval shapes) tracks depending on the manus–pes set. Note also that some manus are overprinted by the pes. (b) Mediotype of the pes impressions based on 4 specimens with a mean footprint length of 0.48 m. Note that the morphology of the posterior part of the print is slightly biased (more quadrangular) because this area in track 1CA17p is broken. (c) Mediotype of the manus impressions based on 2 specimens with a mean footprint width of 0.37 m. (d–f) Pictures of a selection of the best-preserved tracks (manus–pes set 1CA23, pes 1CA17p and manus 1CA3m). The false color depth maps were generated with the software CloudCompare (https://www.cloudcompare.org/) and the mediotypes with the software DigTrace (https://www.digtrace.co.uk/).
