Can anyone give me clarity on the hip armor?

I was disappointed that "Stegosaurus armatus" was a name that fell out of usage.

There's evidence that it and S. ungulatus are the same animal, and S. armatus would take priority due to being named first.

What do you think of Sophie? Does she have any implications of the classic shape of Stegosaurus? I heard that a lot of steg specimens in museums are composite so maybe we need to revise. I wanna know this because I'm planning to make a steg model and I want it to be perfect.

Sophie is well preserved but also not complete. Some elements of Sophie are badly crushed.
Like other specimens, we should carefully examine Sophie.

I just wanna know what shape I should go with; Scott Hartman's new proposed shape or the classic? I'll save the steg for last since I want the model to be perfect.

Wow, this is all very intriguing. What is the stratigraphy of these stegosaurs like though? Because I'm trying to figure the Morrison out and it's really a nerve-wracking experience for me. Just learned a bit about Allosaurus' progression through time and believe me, I did not expect that at all.

S. ungulatus mainly occurred from upper part of Brushy Basin Mbr. of Morrison Fm..
A. longispinus occurred from upper part of Brushy Basin Mbr., possibly.
S. stenops mainly occurred from middle part of Salt Wash Mbr. to lower part of Brushy Basin Mbr..
S?. sulcatus occurred from middle part of Salt Wash Mbr. (co-ocurrences with S. stenops).
H. mjosi occurred from lower part of Tidwell Mbr. to upper part of Salt Wash Mbr..

Late to the party, but does the "Lucy" specimen (I think that's what they called it) mess with this at all? I think I've seen one reconstruction and it was startlingly different.

I didn't know there were osteoderms on Stegosaurus' hips found.
Also, that longispinus!

I painted Alcovasaurus not too long ago, made it look like Kentrosaurus more than Stegosaurus

Nice!
For a while, I had the only Hesperosaurus on the internet :V

Thanks!
Aathal specimens of Hesperosaurus are currently being studied by O. Mateus. So I 'll re-draw Hesperosaurus when Mateus's paper published.

Great skeletals...
Stegosaurus taxonomy is pretty a mess...

Thanks!
Stegosaurus taxonomy is complex and difficult... I hope more well-preserved skeletons will be found.

Just like the 18 plated Stegosaurus "sophie" that really deserve more love on the internet!

Well Alcovasaurus longispinus sure lives up to it's specific name.

Wait a minute... I never thought of Stegosaurus had shoulder spikes, as I started pictured it, nowadays. People knew that stegosaurus is being the only stegosaur with no shoulder spike.

Stegosaurus? sulcatus may be needed its own genus. Stegosaurus stenops and Stegosaurus ungulatus (and H. mjosi) must have no shoulder spike.
