6.6" Hadrosaur (Hypacrosaur) Vertebra on Metal Stand - Montana
This is a really cool, 6.6" wide Hadrosaur (Hypacrosaur) vertebra from the Two Medicine Formation of Montana. It was collected this last summer and has been nicely prepared from the hard rock surrounding it. When the vertebra was found, the superior half of the vertebral arch had broken away from the centrum. Some of the bone wasn't recoverable and has been restored. There is gap fill restoration to the posterior face of the centrum.
Comes with the pictured custom metal display stand.

About Hypacrosaurus
Hypacrosaurus is a very large, Lambeosaurini Hadrsosaur that would have been almost as large as the Tyrannosaurs that it lived alongside. Like Corythosaurus, it had a tall, hollow, rounded crest, although not as large and straight. It is known from the remains of two species that spanned 75 to 67 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous of Alberta, Canada, and Montana, United States, and is the latest hollow-crested duckbill known from good remains in North America. It is estimated to have been around 9.1 meters (30 feet) long and to have weighed up to 4-5 tons.
