Brachylophosaurus, meaning "short-crested lizard" referring to its small crest, was a mid-sized member of the hadrosaurid family of dinosaurs. It is known from several skeletons and bonebed material from the Judith River Formation of Montana and the Oldman Formation of Alberta,[1] living roughly 75 million years ago.
