Genera

Edmontosaurini are a group of saurolophine hadrosaurs that lived in the Northern Hemisphere during the Late Cretaceous period. It currently contains Edmontosaurus and Shantungosaurus, thought Anatosaurus may be a distinct genus,[2] and Kerberosaurus and Kundurosaurus may be members, thought are more likely saurolophins.[3][4]
