Its neck vertebrae have special crests on the top and bottom, which is why it was named 'crest vertebrae'.1
This dinosaur was first thought to be a species of Halticosaurus, then Liliensternus, before getting its own name in 2007.1
Lophostropheus lived around 205 to 196 million years ago, right at the Triassic-Jurassic boundary.1
It is the only theropod dinosaur known from good remains at the Triassic-Jurassic boundary.1
