4

Scientists once thought Rhabdodon was a dwarf dinosaur because it lived on islands, but new research shows it was actually a giant compared to its closest relatives.2

5

Rhabdodon shared its home with other dinosaurs like the sauropod Ampelosaurus and the carnivorous theropods Arcovenator and Pyroraptor.2

6

Fossils of Rhabdodon have been found in France, Spain, Romania, and Austria, showing it lived across much of southern Europe.21

Chatschader da mitus

Rhabdodon was named by French paleontologist Philippe Matheron in 1869 based on fossils from the Fuveau Basin in southern France. The name was originally spelled two ways, but the ICZN officially fixed it as Rhabdodon priscus in 1988.24
Anc discutà
Scientists are not sure whether Rhabdodon was a dwarf or a giant, because some fossils are much larger than others, and it lived on both islands and the mainland.2
