- Notes: Kritosaurus was found in New Mexico by Barnum Brown,the great American Museum of Natural History collector. Thisduckbill dinosaur had a wide, flat skull and a ridge of bone justbelow its eyes. This would have given its mouth and snout theappearance of a "Roman Nose," hence its name "Noble Lizard."There is considerable evidence that Kritosaurus and Gryposaurusare the same species but there appear to be differences in theirtooth structure.
