The Basturs Poble site is what is known in English as a bone bed, a geological stratum containing a great number of fossils. The stratum dates back some 70 million years. It is the only one to have been found in Europe exclusively containing hadrosaur remains. The excavations conducted during the past 10 years have yielded approximately 1000 fossils. The remains are disjointed and possibly belong to a single species: Pararhabdodon isonensis.
