Saurolophus — size comparison — facts and sources

Saurolophus osborni was a herbivorous hadrosaurid of Late Cretaceous present-day Canada. It had a broad beak and bony crest projecting backwards from the upper skull. Elaborate dentition processed plant food.

Canadian finds permit comparisons of its development with other hadrosaurs. Saurolophus also includes a distinct species known from Asia, so the whole genus has a wider range than Saurolophus osborni.
