Telmatosaurus was a small duck-billed dinosaur that lived on an ancient island. It was about as long as a car and ate plants like shrubs and leaves. Because it lived on an island with limited food, it became smaller than its relatives.1 4

Telmatosaurus is an example of insular dwarfism, meaning it became smaller because it lived on an island with fewer resources.1

The first Telmatosaurus skull was found by peasants in 1895 and given to Ilona Nopcsa, whose brother Ferenc later became a paleontologist and named the dinosaur.1

Telmatosaurus was originally named Limnosaurus, but that name was already used for a crocodilian, so it was changed to Telmatosaurus in 1903.1 4

Telmatosaurus lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 70 to 66 million years ago, on an island called Hațeg Island in what is now Romania.1 4

The holotype skull of Telmatosaurus is stored at the Natural History Museum in London under the number NHMUK PV R 3386.1

Telmatosaurus is a basal hadrosauromorph, meaning it is an early relative of the larger duck-billed dinosaurs like Edmontosaurus.1

Las dumondas las pli frequentas davart Telmatosaurus

?How big was Telmatosaurus?

About 5 metres (16 ft) long and 600 kg (1,300 lb). That is roughly the length of a small car.1 2

?What did Telmatosaurus eat?

It ate plants. Telmatosaurus likely ate shrubs, leaves, herbaceous plants and seeds.1

?When did Telmatosaurus live?

Telmatosaurus lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 84 to 66 million years ago.2

?Where was Telmatosaurus found?

Telmatosaurus fossils have been found in Romania, France and Spain. The first skull was found in Transylvania (Romania).1 2

?Why was Telmatosaurus so small?

Telmatosaurus was small because it lived on an island with limited food. This is called insular dwarfism.1 3

?Did Telmatosaurus have any diseases?

One young Telmatosaurus had a benign (non-cancerous) tumor called an ameloblastoma in its lower jaw. It is the first time this tumor has been found in a dinosaur.1

Chatschader da mitus

Mitus: Some people think Telmatosaurus was a large dinosaur like other hadrosaurs.

Vardad: Telmatosaurus was actually quite small, only about 5 meters long and 600 kilograms, due to living on an island with limited food.1
