Microdontosaurus lived about 174 to 161 million years ago, during the Middle Jurassic period.3

Its name means 'tiny-toothed lizard', because its teeth were very small.1

Scientists think it was a marine reptile, not a dinosaur, even though its name sounds like one.3

The fossils were found in rocks that were once part of a shallow sea.3

Microdontosaurus is known from only a few bones, so scientists are still unsure about many details of its life.1
