Saurolophinae

(Brown 1914)

Les Saurolophinae forment une sous-famille de « dinosaures à bec de canard » herbivores du sous-ordre des ornithopodes et de la famille des Hadrosauridae. Ils sont très communs au Crétacé supérieur en Amérique du Nord, en Asie et en Europe. Jusqu'à la fin du XXe siècle cette sous-famille se nommait Hadrosaurinae.

Mounted replica of a composite skeleton of Edmontosaurus annectens on display at the University of Oxford Museum, Oxford, England. The original skeleton is compiled from disarticulated fossil bones from a bonebed of the Hell Creek Formation, exposed in the Ruth Mason Quarry in Harding County, South Dakota. It is 8.5 m (28 ft.) long and the skull is almost 1 m (39 in.) in length.[1][2] ↑ Dinosaurs in the Museum.
