Pekinosaurus (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pekinosaurus (meaning "Pekin Lizard") is the name given to a genus of pseudosuchian from the Late Triassic. This prehistoric reptile lived in what is now North Carolina, in the United States. The type species, P. olseni, was described by Hunt and Lucas in 1994, based on fossils found in Pekin, North Carolina, whence the animal receives its name. At the time, it was thought to be a basal ornithischian dinosaur, but with the discovery of more complete remains of the related Revueltosaurus, this has been shown to be incorrect (Irmis et al., 2007, who assign it to Revueltosaurus sp.).
