Pectinodon was a small, bird-like dinosaur that lived at the very end of the Age of Dinosaurs. It had sharp, comb-shaped teeth that helped it eat soft foods like insects and small animals. Scientists only know it from its teeth, but they think it was a fast, feathered hunter.1

The teeth are small, less than 1 cm tall, and are flattened from side to side.1

4

Pectinodon lived about 67 to 66 million years ago, right before the dinosaurs went extinct.1

5

It belonged to the troodontid family, which were smart, bird-like dinosaurs with big eyes and a sickle claw on each foot.1

Descubrimento
Kenneth Carpenter named Pectinodon bakkeri in 1982 based on a single tooth from the Lance Formation in Wyoming. The species name honors paleontologist Robert Bakker.1
Aínda en debate
Scientists debate whether Pectinodon is a valid genus or just a species of Troodon, and whether all the teeth from different formations belong to the same species.1
