Neonatal state and degree of necessity for parental care in Maiasaura based on inferred neonatal metabolic rates

Neonatal state and degree of necessity for parental care in Maiasaura based on inferred neonatal metabolic rates

Abstract We infer the neonatal metabolic rate at rest (RMR) and at maximum activity levels (MMR) of the hadrosaurid dinosaur Maiasaura peeblesorum from the Two Medicine Formation of Montana (USA) using Phylogenetic Eigenvector Maps applied to the following osteohistological features: the Relative Pr...
