Abstract
Fragmentary bones and teeth of three Late Cretaceous dinosaur taxa occur along both sides of the Georgia-Alabama border, in the extreme southeastern Coastal Plain Province. The localities lie in the middle and upper Blufftown Formation, in nearshore marine deposits. Exogyra ssp. and calcareous nannofossils give a late Santonian through mid-Campanian age range. Taxa determined are: Hadrosauridae, genus and species indeterminate; Ornithomimidae, genus and species indeterminate; and Albertosaurus? sp.Keywords
