Pararhabdodon isonensis

† Pararhabdodon isonensis was an extinct parrot (Psittaciformes) from Spain. A frugivorous and seed-eating bird of the Late Cretaceous, it inhabited the ecosystems of this region. Fossils contribute to understanding the paleontological diversity of this area and time period.

The final age of dinosaurs, featuring iconic species like Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, and Velociraptor. Dinosaurs reached their peak diversity before the catastrophic asteroid impact at the Chicxulub crater ended the Mesozoic Era.
