Reference	Diagnosis
P. Godefroit et al. 1998	Iguanodontia characterized by more than one replacement tooth in each tooth position; crowns firmly cemented together to form a rigid battery; articular surface of the occipital condyle not steeply inclined downwards; basipterygoid processes long and slender, projecting more ventrally than the occipital condyle; presence of fontanelles on the skull of younger specimens; absence of surangular foramen; maxillary teeth miniaturized, bearing a single large carina; preacetabular process of ilium very deflected ventrally; antitrochanter of ilium developed; obturator foramen of pubis fully open; transverse widening of the proximal head of the tibia extending distally.
