Description

TABLE 1. — Summary table of the distribution of foramina on the premaxillae of specimens MNHN.F.GDF365 and GDF366 (Cristatusaurus lapparenti Taquet & Russell, 1998) and MNHN.F.SAM124 (Spinosaurus maroccanus Russell, 1996) with highlighting the percentage of foramina counted on their respective rosettes. Symbol: *, indicates the number of “significant” foramina, with a diameter greater than or equal to 1 mm.
