Alex Eve Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Howdy all I’m wondering if there is any variation in the teeth between different hadrosaur species? In the guide to common vertebrate fossils of Alberta there is a diagram that portrays a supposed Corythosaurus tooth and that some other tooth diagrams do not represent Corythosaurus. There’s a bit of a difference between the diagrams, but I’m unsure if it warrants identification to a genus level. I took a look at my hadrosaur teeth and noticed there is a difference between these two. The one on the right is wider and has a more prominent central carina. Could this be taxonomic variation, or is it just individual variation? Any help is appreciated, thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
