Prettige feite

1

Hylaeosaurus was one of the first three dinosaurs ever named by scientist Richard Owen in 1842, along with Iguanodon and Megalosaurus.1

2

Its fossils were discovered in 1832 when a gunpowder explosion blasted open a quarry face in Tilgate Forest, England.1

3

Hylaeosaurus had at least three long, curved spines on its shoulder, the longest being 42.5 centimetres (about 16.7 inches).1

4

It was the first ankylosaur (armoured dinosaur) ever found.1

5

Only one good skeleton has been found, and much of its body is still unknown to scientists.1

6

The name Hylaeosaurus means 'forest lizard' because it was found in the Tilgate Forest area.1

Hylaeosaurus was discovered by Gideon Mantell in 1832 after a quarry explosion revealed its bones in Tilgate Forest, England. Mantell named it in 1833.1
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure whether Hylaeosaurus was a nodosaurid or a more primitive ankylosaurid, because its skeleton is incomplete.1
