Stegosaurus From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stegosaurus (IPA: /ˌstɛgəˈsɔːrəs/) is a genus of stegosaurid armoured dinosaur from the Late Jurassic period (Kimmeridgian to Early Tithonian) in what is now western North America. In 2006, a specimen of Stegosaurus was announced from Portugal, suggesting that they were present in Europe as well. Due to its distinctive tail spikes and plates, Stegosaurus is one of the most recognisable dinosaurs, along with Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, and Apatosaurus.

The name Stegosaurus means "roof-lizard" and is derived from the Greek στέγος-, stegos- ("roof") and σαῦρος, -sauros ("lizard").[2] At least three species have been identified in the upper Morrison Formation and are known from the remains of about 80 individuals. They lived some 155 to 145 million years ago, in an environment and time dominated by the giant sauropods Diplodocus, Camarasaurus, and Apatosaurus.

Alamosaurus was named for Alamo Creek, San Juan Basin, New Mexico, where the first specimen was discovered. Alamosaurus roamed over much of southwestern North America during the latest part of the Cretaceous. It became extinct at the very end of the Mesozoic Era, during the mass extinction episode that wiped out many other species at the same time. Alamosaurus was one of the very last of the non-avian dinosaurs in Texas. Alamosaurus sanjuanensis Giant Sauropod Dinosaur

Alamosaurus From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alamosaurus, (pronounced IPA: /ˌæləməˈsɔrəs/; meaning "Alamo lizard"), is a genus of titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous Period of what is now North America. It was a large quadrupedal herbivore, up to 53 feet (16 metres) in length and up to 33 tons (30 metric tonnes) in weight. Alamosaurus, like other sauropods, had a long neck and a long tail, which may have ended in a 'whiplash' structure.
