You know, i just can't take Anatotian seriously with the crest; it makes it look derpy.

I'm no expert but, as far as I know, only Edmontosaurus regalis has been found with the crest. Also, none of the E. annectens mummies we have show a crest.

do we have Yi and Caudipteryx's color yet?
also I meant the skeleton not the crest.
(I think it looks cute on E. annectens)

No.

E. annectens didn't have the comb. From what I see though, the skeleton seems fine. I'll have to spend a bit more time finding something to compare it with for a better answer.

Scott Hartman's Edmontosaurus regalis for comparison

AFAIK adult Edmontosaurus annectens ("Anotitan") had a more vertically compressed (flatter) beak than Edmontosaurus regalis, It is one of the reasons why there had been some doubts about wheter they really were the same genus or not... That seems to be the case in the skeletal reconstruction, which I guess is accurate...

What about the ridge on the back ? Did Edmonto really have that, or is it a speculative trait ?

It's only known from isolated foot bones, so no.

A couple of things have been on my mind lately.

1. If a new genus is discovered, could it be given a name that is no longer in use? For example, if we discovered an undoubtedly new genus of whale that also happened to have yoked teeth, could that genus be named Zeuglodon? I'm just wondering what the rules are on this sort of thing.

2. Is Troodon the only troodont that is thought to be an omnivore or are others such as Pectinodon and Zanabazar thought to be omnivores as well? Also, if Troodon and its relatives were omnivores, what kinds of things is it suspected that they would be eating on the herbivorous side (fruits, leaves, roots, all 3, etc.)?

Thanks in advance!

Sadly not. Once a name is used and declared dubious, it's taken forever. A bit like a secondary username on a forum that's eventually abandoned.

I thought it was troodonts in general. I guess the vegetarian side of their diet would consist of fruit more than anything. It takes a bit tougher guts to eat leaves outright.

IIRC there was a troodontid (don't remember the species) found with seeds in the abdomen.
