Edmontosaurus regalis (Lambe, 1917) >> Trachodon atavus (Cope, 1871 ) Agathaumas milo (Cope, 1874) Edmontosaurus > Edmontosaurus annectens (Marsh, 1892) = Claosaurus annectus (Marsh, 1892) >> Thespesius edmontonensis (Gilmore, 1924) Edmontosaurus > Edmontosaurus saskatchewanensis (Sternberg, 1926) = Thespesius saskatchewanensis (Sternberg, 1926).
Approximately 7 fully articulated skull and associated postcrania. 5-7 articulated skull elements.
\\\\\\\"Edmonton lizard\\\\\\\" (of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) was one of the biggest duckbilled dinosaurs. With its powerfull jaws, bulky body, small forelimbs, strong hind limbs, and deep tail, it resembled an unusually large Iguanodon. But it had a flatter, more duck-like beak, hundreds of close-packed cheek teeth, and inflatable skin flaps over large nasal cavities.
