山东诸城晚白垩世恐龙动物群研究进展

自从20世纪60年代初在山东诸城发现第一具恐龙骨架"巨型山东龙"以来,一系列具有代表性的恐龙骨骼化石在诸城白垩纪地层中被发现,特别是埋藏于诸城晚白垩世地层中恐龙骨骼化石群,最为引人注目。目前研究发现了包括鸭嘴龙类、角龙类、暴龙类等在内的多种恐龙类型,为丰富我国东部白垩纪恐龙动物群的研究提供了新的宝贵材料。该文系统总结和归纳了近些年来在诸城晚白垩世地层中发现的恐龙骨骼化石及其所代表的恐龙动物群类型的研究成果,同时又提出了目前依然存在的一些亟待解决的关键问题和研究意义,有助于下一步更好的深入研究诸城晚白垩世恐龙动物群。

Research Development of Dinosaur Fauna in Late Cretaceous in Zhucheng City of Shandong Province

Since the first dinosaur skeleton " Shantungosaurus giganteus " was discovered in 1960s, a series of representative dinosaurbone fossils have been found in Cretaceous strata in Zhucheng area of Shandong province, especially the dinosaurbone fossils bearing in the Late Cretaceous. Recently, abundant of dinosaur fossils, including Hadrosaurs, Ceratopsia, Tyrannosaurs etc. have been found and studied, which are new valuable materials for further research on dinosaur fauna living in late Cretaceous period in eastern China. In this article, research achievements about dinosaur fossils and related dinosaur fauna in Zhucheng region have been summarized, and some key questions which should be soluted immediately have been put forward as well. It will contributed to further study on dinosaur fauna.
