Aublysodon molnaris Paul, 1988, new species

AUBLYSODON MOLNARIS new species type— LACM 28741 time—Maastrichtian of the latest Late Cretaceous horizon and distribution—Hell Creek Formations of Montana main anatomical study— Molnar, 1978 [table omitted] The “Jordon theropod” type snout from Montana has the same shape and front teeth as the other aublysodonts, so it most likely belongs to the same genus. This specimen’s bigger size, bigger teeth and more robust snout indicate it is a little closer to tyrannosaurs proper than the other two species are. I have named it after its describer.Published as part of Paul, G.
