Pixpaleosky Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I am doing some research on dromaeosaur bones, and I only found limited data and pictures on the web. I am particularly looking for caudal vertebrae and ribs pictures and structures. So I make an attempt towards TFF members knowledge and data !

Troodon Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Not much published on North American specimens since little has been found and published. Hopefully we will soon see a publication on the postcranial elements of Saurornitholestes from the ROM. I can only point you to Asian material where skeletons have been found. Not the best papers or most complete specimens but may help. Important Features of the Dromaeosaur Skeleton: Information from a New Specimen MARK A. NORELL' AND PETER J.

Pixpaleosky Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 thank you Troodon, I didnt know these papers. These fossils are amazing, mainly the limbs ! However as you say we dont see much details, it is missing a bone by bone study. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dromaeosaur bones just are super rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
