Inconsistency in article

[edit]

Although the lead states that "... two skulls are the only fossil material known," there are two fotos of multiple skeletons described as Hongshanosaurus. Either the "only two skulls" statement is wrong or the fotos are mislabeled. Ecphora (talk) 22:37, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The photos are labeled as coming from the Hong Kong Science Museum, which based on other photos on Wiki contains a large number of undescribed specimens on display. Apparently many Chinese museums are notorious for this, and many are fake. The specimens may be labeled Hongshanosaurus but that doesn't necessarily mean scientists have studied these specimens and determined that this is the correct classification.
