Re: [dinosaur] "Lane" Triceratops specimen number

As I said, Lane is currently housed at the Houston Museum of Natural Science and no longer at the Black Hills Institute. Even then BHI 6220 is the wrong former specimen number, as according to Larson et al. (2007) it was BHI 6273.

> In 2002, a Black Hills Institute team retrieved the Triceratops known as “Lane” from private land near Lusk, Wyoming – the same area where Charles Sternberg found the classic “mummified” Edmontosaurus in 1908. Like the Edmontosaurus, Lane was found with fossilized impressions of skin and other integument covering large portions of its body. Surprisingly, this specimen revealed that Triceratops was almost certainly adorned with sizable quills or spines, which were spread evenly across its back and haunches.

Hall of Paleontology since 2012. Exhibit curator Robert Bakker specifically instructed the BHI team to mount Lane in an energetic trotting pose. With two feet off the ground and its forelimbs held erect and under its body, the Lane mount exudes speed and strength - and is a far cry from the sprawling AMNH Triceratops. At 85% complete, Lane is the single most intact Triceratops found to date. Nevertheless, a full description of the specimen and its skin impressions has not yet been published.
