Dinodontosaurus (meaning "terrible-toothed lizard") is a genus of dicynodont therapsid. It was medium to large dicynodont of the Triassic (with skull up to Script error: No such module "convert". long[1]) and had a beak corneum. It lived in the Middle Triassic but disappeared in the Upper Triassic.

Species

  • Dinodontosaurus tener is the most common species of dicynodont that existed in the Middle Triassic, and more common in the fossil layers that age in Rio Grande do Sul, in Rota Paleontológica. They are found mainly in the Paleontological Site Chiniquá in São Pedro do Sul and Candelária, where a group of ten pups were found together, demonstrating that these animals had strategies for coexistence in a group and caring for their offspring. Diodontosaurus pedroanum Tupi-Caldas, 1936 and Dinodontosaurus oliveirai, Romer 1943 are synonyms.[2]
  • Dinodontosaurus brevirostris is known from skeleton remains and a coprolite animal latrine[3] found in Argentina. Chanaria platyceps Cox, 1968 and Dinodontosaurus platygnathus are synonyms.
