Triebold Paleontology, Inc. offers the most exciting new dinosaur cast to come along in years! Our complete skull and skeleton casts are based on 1994 discoveries of the first associated post-cranial material along with the second skull ever found. Highlights of the skull include the first jaw ever found, which has small spikes on the postero-lateral edge! Large spikes at the rear of the skull suggest a close relationship with Stygimoloch, plus new material from the snout area is preserved, changing the shape of the restored premaxilla. Preserved post-cranial material dictates a horizontal alignment of the dorsal vertebrae with a strong U-curve to the cervicals. It is approximately 9 feet long x 4 feet high (2.7 meters x 1.2 meters). This specimen and the site is being studied by an international interdisciplinary geological-paleontological team.

This discovery has added much to our knowledge of these strange creatures. The strong "U" curve of the rather dainty cervical vertebrae suggest that head-butting may not have been possible. The unique spikes ringing the rear of the skull were probably used for display and ritual flank-butting. The ribs are identifiable by the corrugations running lengthwise along the dorsal margins. grooved zygapophyses are another unique feature.

The bizarre appearance and rarity of the Stigymoloch  and Pachycelphalosaurus makes them both a display

and research prize for any museum!
