Family
HADROSAURIDAE
The vast majority ofthe hadrosaur specimens from the Laramie and Denver Formations cannot be identified below family level. At least two genera,
Edmontosaurus
and
Anatotitan
,
are known from the coeval Lance and Hell Creek Formations making it impossible to refer the mostly fragmentary specimens from the Denver Basin to either genus. An exception is a pair of maxillae, described below.
