Thyreosaurus had unusual dermal armour: thick, oval to rectangular plates with a rough texture on one side and a cross-hatched pattern on the other.3
Its plates were probably lying flat on its body, not sticking up like the plates of Stegosaurus.3
The name Thyreosaurus comes from the ancient Greek word for an oblong shield, because its armour looked like shields.1
Thyreosaurus lived about 168 to 161 million years ago, during the Bathonian and Callovian ages of the Middle Jurassic.2
Its fossils were found in the El Mers III Formation in Morocco, alongside other dinosaurs like the stegosaur Adratiklit and the ankylosaur Spicomellus.1
The holotype skeleton includes nine back vertebrae, ribs, a possible leg bone, and several armour plates.1
