Teresa Maryańska is a Polish paleontologist who has specialized in Mongolian dinosaurs, particularly pachycephalosaurians and ankylosaurians.[1] A member of the 1964, 1965, 1970, and 1971 Polish–Mongolian expeditions to the Gobi Desert,[2] she has described many finds from these rocks, often with Halszka Osmólska. Among the dinosaurs she has described are: Saichania and Tarchia (1977); with Osmólska, Homalocephale, Prenocephale, and Tylocephale (and Pachycephalosauria) (1974), Bagaceratops (1975), and Barsboldia (1981); and with Osmόlska and Altangerel Perle, Goyocephale (1982).[1] As of 2004, she was affiliated with the Muzeum Ziemi of the Polska Akademia Nauk.[3] She was assistant director of Muzeum Ziemi.[4]

Teresa Maryańska is also an author of book O gadach bez sensacji (Warszawa 1970).

She is considered as one of Poland's leading experts on dinosaurs[5] and also one of leading experts on dinosaurs the world[6].
