3.9" Hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus) Cervical Vertebral Arch - Wyoming

Hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus) Cervical Vertebral Arch - Wyoming #229718

This is a 3.9" wide, partial, cervical vertebral arch of a hadrosaur (Edmontosaurus annectens), collected from our partner's lease on the Lance (Creek) Formation in Niobrara County, Wyoming.

It comes with an acrylic display stand.

There are repaired cracks through the bone, primarily at the bases of the prezygapophyses and postzygapophyses. A small portion of the centrum remained intact.

Hadrosaurs

are frequently referred to as duck-billed dinosaurs and are members of the Ornithischian family Hadrosauridae. They were fairly common herbivores that roamed Asia, Europe, and North America during the Upper Cretaceous Period. Many species of Hadrosaurs had distinctive crests on their heads, some of which had air-filled chambers that may have produced a distinct sound. These crests may have been used for both audio and visual display purposes.
