Dracovenator had a kink in its upper jaw, between the maxilla and the premaxilla, similar to Dilophosaurus.1

2

The back of its lower jaw had lumps and bumps, a feature also seen in Dilophosaurus but smaller.1

3

The only fossils found so far are a partial skull and some jaw bones. The original skull was lost after being stored at a university.1

4

Dracovenator lived during the Early Jurassic, about 201 to 199 million years ago.1

5

Its name comes from the Drakensberg mountains, which means 'Dragon's Mountain' in Dutch.1

6

The species name regenti honors Regent 'Lucas' Huma, the field assistant who helped discover the fossils.1
