Question about newest Dominian photo

Is this a Para, or a new dinosaur? I really like the look of the dinosaur.

Is the Para a North American species, or was it also found in Asia? I always thought there was an Asian species very similar to it.
 
It's clearly the same dinosaur as from that leaked promotional image. So it can only either be Parasaurolophus or Charonosaurus. Nothing else looks like it.

Charonosaurus is from China. Parasaurolophus is exclusive to North America. There are some who lump Charono into the genus Parasaurolophus. It's definitely Parasaurolophus' closest relative. Although Charonosaurus is from much later rocks. Parasaurolophus is from the Campanian, while Charonosaurus is from the late Maastrichtian.

Fortunately we already have an answer, Colin Trevorrow confirmed... is a Parasaurolophus
 
From what was said there will be two different models of Parasauralophus in the film, the one we're familiar with and the one in OP's image. A few minor design differences seems to be how they'll be told apart.
