  "summary": "Omnisaura summary: Gryposaurus, Lambe 1914\n\n- Named by: Lambe 1914 (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Family: Hadrosauridae (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Parent group: Kritosaurini (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Age, as published by the Paleobiology Database: Campanian to Maastrichtian, 83.6–66 million years ago (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Age, Omnisaura's own calculation (not a published figure): 83.6–72.2 million years ago (medium confidence: Omnisaura's calculation from 17 confirmed PBDB records).\n- Fossils found in: Canada (medium: only PBDB records it (10 records)); United States (medium: only PBDB records it (7 records)).\n- Rock formations: Dinosaur Park (medium: only PBDB records it (10 records)); Kaiparowits (medium: only PBDB records it (4 records)); Two Medicine (medium: only PBDB records it (2 records)); Bearpaw Shale (low: only one PBDB record).\n- Original description: L. M. Lambe (1914). On Gryposaurus notabilis, a new genus and species of trachodont dinosaur from the Belly River Formation of Alberta, with a description of the skull of Chasmosaurus belli. The Ottawa Naturalist 27(11): 145–155. (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; its author and year match the naming authority (Lambe 1914)).\n- Diet, inferred by PBDB for the group: herbivore (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this, and it infers it for the whole of Ornithopoda, the group this genus belongs to, not from this genus's own fossils).\n- Way of life, inferred by PBDB for the group: ground dwelling, gregarious (low confidence: PBDB infers this way of life for the whole of Ornithischia; behaviour is rarely known for one genus).\n\nNot known or disputed:\n- Type species: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- Order: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- Common names: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- Named after: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- 9 record(s) left out: occurrences with status related_other_genus.\n- 5 record(s) left out: pBDB fossil records identified only tentatively (for example 'cf.', '?', or the genus name in quotation marks, PBDB's mark for a loose use).\n\nNot covered by Omnisaura: size, weight, appearance, or behaviour beyond the way of life PBDB infers for the group.
