Dinosaur statistic- countries by density of dinosaur genera finds
Good day to all listmembers,
I took the liberty of calculating another statistic from given figures - table
of countries by average "density" of dinosar (valid) genera finds on the area
of the given country. I used values from wikipedia
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_outlying_territories_by_total_area)
-area in km2 for each country and data from my dinosaur genera list (which
differs from e. g. George Olshevski's list, btw). Of course, it's highly
relative (corresponding to the absolute area of each state) and must be
interpreted with caution. Anyway, i'ts quite interesting and here's the result:
USA 9.629.091 km2/140 genera = 68 779.2 km2 per 1 genus
China 9.598.086 km2/131 = 73 267.8
