New Perspectives on Horned Dinosaurs: The Royal Tyrrell Museum Ceratopsian SymposiumMichael J. Ryan, Brenda J. Chinnery-Allgeier, David A. Eberth Indiana University Press, 2010 - 624 oldal Easily distinguished by the horns and frills on their skulls, ceratopsians were one of the most successful of all dinosaurs. This volume presents a broad range of cutting-edge research on the functional biology, behavior, systematics, paleoecology, and paleogeography of the horned dinosaurs, and includes descriptions of newly identified species. |
