The Unique Species Specimen Discussion Thread

[Brontozaurus]

I'm not entirely sure if this counts, but down here there's a line of hatching eggs (where there's one of those growing dinosaur toys within a shell, and as it expands it breaks out of the shell) where each dinosaur is meant to be a specific Australian species. Here's a picture. To my knowledge this is the only Diamantinasaurus toy or model produced so far. It's a fairly generic sauropod, but since the other three are fairly accurate given the aesthetic I feel that this counts as a unique specimen if it is one.

Thanks for the new suggestions, folks. I'll add them all, except for the Herrerasaurus (Collecta has one too). I would like a picture of that Diamantinasaurus though, can't find it online. And of course, pictures from other species still missing theirs are ever welcome.

There's a link in my original post to a picture of all four hatching dinosaurs. Diamantinasaurus is the green one on the very left.

It's not the most useful picture but it'll have to do, I suppose. Thanks!

parieasurus and geosaurus

Pareiasaurus is the new Gimiki baby figure I suppose? I figured that would be a new one. What company made Geosaurus? Got any pics?

[DC]

shreddies did   Pareiasaurus
and geosaurus (which some people think in an invalid)

www.dinosaurcollectorsitea.com/Schredies.htm old page missing some pics

Joe Demarci has some posted on Collectors Quest

Thanks for the info! Pareiasaurus is out then, but Geosaurus is in.

BTW, the latter is not pictured on that DCS page, is it? There's indeed a few pictures of mentioned species missing. It seems I found a Geosaurus picture on Ebay though, so I already uploaded it.

[amargasaurus cazaui]

Recently was trying to identify and find this figure. I believe it was identified as Micropceratops, although depending whose name you choose, it could as easily be called Microceratus or Gracillceratops. In any event not that common of figure and might possibly qualify.
Perhaps Sbell or a few of the others here might help to clarify for certain. I do know it was positively proven as an actual figure in the identifcation thread.

I think it is labelled as Microceratops, but the correct current name is Microceratus.

I believe that is accurate as well, and matches what I have read and seen. I wandered through the listing of unique species and saw no entry for any of those names , not even Gracilaceratops. Unless I missed one, and I could well have, it is unique. These figures for basal ceratopsians are just not very common.

[Roselaar]

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll upload that figure under the name of Microceratus.

BTW, I'm currently collecting and storing pics of all unique species on my PC so I can upload them to Photobucket and thus make sure none of the links go dead anymore (as has happened to several species by now). Takes a while, but soon we'll have a more stable list. I've also discovered a few more new species and debunked several others in the process.

Exit Huayangosaurus.

Still working on the major picture update.

Did a complete makeover of the list. Deleted several species, added numerous others, added new pictures and created stable links to all of them. No more dead links from now on!

Several of the newer species might prove to be not quite so unique after all. And there's still plenty of species without pictures. Better explore the new list to see what can be done, folks!

There is an Acinonyx pardinensis picture here you can use

So there is! Thanks for the heads-up, I added it immediately.
