Family HADROSAURIDAE

The vast majority ofthe hadrosaur specimens from the Laramie and Denver Formations cannot be identified below family level. At least two genera, Edmontosaurus and Anatotitan , are known from the coeval Lance and Hell Creek Formations making it impossible to refer the mostly fragmentary specimens from the Denver Basin to either genus. An exception is a pair of maxillae, described below.
