TABLE 2. — Summary table highlighting the importance of the neurovascular volume occupying the bone material of the premaxillae (without the alveoli) of specimens MNHN.F.GDF365 and GDF366 (Cristatusaurus lapparenti Taquet & Russell, 1998).| Taxon | Specimen | Volume of bone (without alveoli) – Premaxillae | Volume of the neurovascular network – Premaxillae | Percentage of neurovascular network in the bones (without alveoli volume) |
|---|
| Cristatusaurus lapparenti | MNHN.F.GDF366 (juvenile) | 79.1727 cm3 | 7.4281 cm3 | 9.39 % |
|---|
| Cristatusaurus lapparenti | MNHN.F.GDF365 (adult) | 339.90 cm3 | 33.96 cm3 | 9.99 % |
