This clade excludes basal hadrosaurids such as Hadrosaurus and Yamatosaurus but self-destructs if Hadrosaurus is descended from the last common ancestor of Lambeosaurus and Saurolophus.

While studying the chewing methods of hadrosaurids in 2009, the paleontologists Vincent Williams, Paul Barrett, and Mark Purnell found that hadrosaurs likely grazed on horsetails and vegetation close to the ground, rather than browsing higher-growing leaves and twigs.
