Nuevos restos de Ornitisquio en el sur de Africa (Abstarcto)


NEW ORNITHISCHIAN REMAINS FROM THE UPPER ELLIOT FORMATION (LOWER JURASSIC) OF LESOTHO AND STRATIGRAPHICAI, DISTRIBUTION OF SOUTHERN AFRICAN FABROSAURIDS

FABIEN KNOLL, BERNARD BATTAIL
Knoll, F., Battail, B., 2001. New ornithischian remains from the Upper Elliot Formation (Lower Jurassic) of Lesotho and stratigraphical distribution of southern African fabrosaurids.

Abstract: Unpublished postcranial dinosaur material from the Upper Elliot Formation (Hettangian) of Likhoele Mountain (Mafeteng district, Lesotho) is described. The bone assemblage includes elements from both the axial (centra) and appendicular (ilium, femora, tibiae, fibula) skeleton, from, at least, three individuals. Although being clearly ornithischian, the specimens do not belong to heterodontosaurids. They rather appear close to Lesothosaurus diagnosticus. The stratigraphical distribution of southern African fabrosaurids is also discussed on the basis of both the skeletal and ichnological record. © 2001 Éditions scientifiques et m6dicales Elsevier SAS
