Ceratosaurus

Description
Source: Wikipédia
Ceratosaurus est un genre de dinosaure théropode qui a vécu dans l'Utah, le Colorado, au Portugal et en Tanzanie pendant le Jurassique supérieur. Le nom signifie « lézard à corne » à cause de l'appendice qu'il porte sur le museau : il est le seul carnivore connu à présenter cette caractéristique. Cette saillie ressemble à une corne, bien qu'elle soit osseuse, arrondie et non tranchante. Ceratosaurus fut découvert en 1883.
