Summary

Description
English: Minqaria is a lambeosaurine hadrosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Morocco. Lambeosaurine hadrosaurs are mostly known from the northern continents of Europe, Asia, and North America. With a lack of known land bridge evidence from Europe in the Late Cretaceous, recent discoveries of Minquara and its very close kin in Northern Africa suggest they arrived via oceanic dispersal. Upon arriving from Europe, they diversified in competition with the Gondwanan herbivores, resulting in a smaller size than their northern relatives. As a result, Minqaria is estimated at around 3.5 m in length.
