Abstract
A new species of ornithischian dinosaur (Lycorhinus consors sp. nov.) is established on a skull from the Upper Triassic Red Beds of Lesotho. This ornithischian is assigned to the family Heterodontosauridae of the suborder Ornithopoda. The dinosaurs of the family Heterodonto‐sauridae are reviewed: Geranosaurus atavus Broom (1911) is considered anomendubium and the genus name Heterodontosaurus Crompton & Charig (1962) is held to be a junior synonym for Lycorhinus Haughton (1924). Functional and palaeoecological implications of the heterodontosaurid dentition are discussed. The pattern of tooth wear may reflect a highly specialized jaw action which involved protraction and retraction of the mandible to produce a grinding effect between upper and lower cheek teeth. Lycorhinus consors is presumed to be a female heterodontosaurid because it differs from all other heterodontosaurids in lacking caniniform tusks. It is suggested that the tusks of heterodontosaurids were functionally analogous to those of tayassuids and tragulids and that they were employed as weapons for intra‐specific combat and defence. Dental peculiarities indicate that tooth replacement processes were suppressed in heterodontosaurids; replacement of the teeth seems to have been restricted to a brief period each year (presumably when heterodontosaurids underwent aestivation or hibernation). A new diagnosis is formulated for the family Heterodontosauridae. The relationships of early ornithopod dinosaurs are briefly reviewed and a new classification is proposed. Ten families of ornithopod dinosaurs are recognized; these are ranked in two grades‐one (named Dolichopoda) representing the conservative main stem of the ornithischian phylogenetic tree and the other (named Brachypoda) comprising the several more advanced lines of ornithopod evolution.
