 | Note: This historical image is not a factually accurate dinosaur restoration. Reason: The head of Elasmosaurus was erroneously placed by Cope on the "short end" now known to be the tail. The mosasaur has a long neck, and the Dryptosaurus has too many fingers, a too small head, and is in a "tripod-pose". |
Summary
| Description |
English: Dryptosaurus (formerly Lealaps) confronting Elasmosaurus orientalis, with Mosasaurus and Osteopygis behind. Hadrosaurus forages in background, and Thoracosaurus crawls up on the banks. Note that the head of Elasmosaurus was erroneously placed by Cope on the "short end" now known to be the tail.
