The hollow-crested lambeosaurine hadrosaurids represent one of the latest
and most rapid radiations of ornithischian dinosaurs, attaining a nearly
global distribution during the Late Cretaceous. Although their presence in
Europe is well documented, there are questions about the origin and timing
of their arrival in this continent. The analysis of old and newfound
lambeosaurine specimens from the Els Nerets locality (eastern Tremp
Syncline, northeastern Spain) have shown that the ornithopod dinosaurs from
this classic site belong to Lambeosaurinae. Recent chronostratigraphic data
places the locality in the lower Maastrichtian, implying that the Els
Nerets lambeosaurine is the first occurrence of the clade in Europe. The
Els Nerets lambeosaurine exhibits some noticeable pelvic features only
shared with the Asian taxon Tsintaosaurus spinorhinus and thus we
hypothesize a close taxonomic affinity between the lambeosaurine from Els
Nerets and the Eurasian Tsintaosaurini. Members of this tribe would have
dispersed into the Ibero-Armorican Domain not later than the early
Maastrichtian, coexisting with endemic dinosaurian groups for some time.
