%0 Journal Article %T An additional hadrosaurid specimen (Dinosauria: Ornithischia) from the marine Maastrichtian deposits of the Maastricht area %A Buffetaut Eric %J Carnets de G¨¦ologie %D 2009 %I Carnets de G¨¦ologie %X An isolated dinosaur vertebra from the marine deposits of the Maastrichtian type area, near the city of Maastricht (The Netherlands), collected during the 19th century and kept in the palaeontological collection of the Museum f¨¹r Naturkunde in Berlin, is described as a caudal vertebra of a hadrosaurid ornithopod. Although it cannot be identified with greater accuracy, this specimen is an addition to the still scanty, but growing, record of non-avian dinosaurs from the Maastrichtian type area. This record is heavily dominated by hadrosaurs, which probably reflects a real abundance of this group of dinosaurs in the Late Maastrichtian of Europe. %K Vertebra %K Dinosauria %K Hadrosauridae %K Cretaceous %K Maastricht %U http://paleopolis.rediris.es/cg/CG2009_L03/index.html
