🦴 Known fossil material

Borogovia is known from only part of its skeleton. This diagram shows which parts of the body have been found.

Parts found as fossils

  • Hind leg
  • Foot

Known from the lower hind legs: the ends of the shin bones, upper-foot bones and toes.

Coloured areas are parts of the skeleton with fossil bones found so far (sometimes just one bone in that area); faint areas have not been found. The outline is a general shape for its group, not this dinosaur's real body.

There is no write-up for this dinosaur yet, but the scientific data below is complete.

Who lived alongside it

Dinosaurs found in the same rock formation as Borogovia (Nemegt), so they lived in the same region at roughly the same time.

Formation data from the Paleobiology Database, counting only each genus's main formations. One formation can span hundreds of thousands to millions of years, so this doesn't mean any two of them ever met.
