"Ornithischian dinosaurs—the horned, dome-headed, armored, and duckbilled dinos and their early relatives—have been recognized for over a century by a set of specialized features: pubic bones in the pelvis that tilt backward instead of forward, to make room for a big digestive tract; a predentary bone at the tip of the lower jaw to help support the beak; and tendons along the backbone that had turned to bone, to help support the vertebral column and the big gut," he told Gizmodo.

Because of the fragility of the plates, and the fact that they may not have always turned to bone in the living animal, they may have been more widespread than currently known. Novas and colleagues suggested that the plates may be homologous to uncinate processes, strip-like bony projections found on the ribs of a variety of animals including the tuatara, crocodiles, birds, and some maniraptoran theropod dinosaurs. In birds, uncinate processes help to ventilate the lungs, working with rib cage muscles, and Novas and colleagues proposed a similar function for the plates of Talenkauen. This homology was rejected in a more recent study by Richard Butler and Peter Galton because of the plates' form.
