Genyodectes
Genyodectes was a meat-eating dinosaur with a big mouth full of sharp teeth. It lived in South America during the Early Cretaceous period, about 112 million years ago. This dinosaur was one of the first meat-eating dinosaurs ever found on that continent!12

Dintlha tse monate
Genyodectes had four teeth in its upper jaw (premaxilla), while its close relative Ceratosaurus had only three.1
The only known fossil of Genyodectes is a partial snout with teeth, found in the Cerro Barcino Formation of Argentina.12
For a long time, scientists thought Genyodectes might be a tyrannosaur or an abelisaur, but now they think it was a ceratosaur, closer to Ceratosaurus.1
Genyodectes was the second non-bird dinosaur ever described from South America, after Loncosaurus.1
The name Genyodectes means 'jaw bite' in Greek, from 'genys' (jaw) and 'dektes' (bite).1
The teeth of Genyodectes were arranged in an overlapping pattern, like shingles on a roof.1

Dipotso tse botswang haholo ka Genyodectes
?How big was Genyodectes?
About 6.25 metres long and weighed around 790 kg. That is roughly as long as a large car.1
?What did Genyodectes eat?
It was a meat-eater, like other theropod dinosaurs. Its long, sharp teeth were perfect for biting and holding onto prey.1
?Did Genyodectes have feathers?
Nobody knows for sure, because only its snout and teeth have been found. Many meat-eating dinosaurs related to it may have had feathers, but there is no direct evidence for Genyodectes.1
?Where did Genyodectes live?
It lived in what is now Argentina, South America, about 112 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous period.1
?Is Genyodectes a dinosaur?
Yes, it is a dinosaur. It was a theropod, a group of mostly meat-eating dinosaurs that walked on two legs.1
?How many teeth did Genyodectes have?
It had four teeth in the front part of its upper jaw (the premaxilla), while its relative Ceratosaurus had only three. The total number of teeth is not known because only part of the skull was found.1
Mosenyi wa ditshomo
Tshomo: Some people thought Genyodectes might be the same as Abelisaurus.
Nnete: Scientists now think Genyodectes is a different dinosaur, a ceratosaur, not an abelisaur.1
