editName | Time period | Location | Diet | Fun fact | Element | Rarity | Image |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Agrosaurus macgillivrayi | Late Triassic | England | herbivore | It was often claimed to be the oldest Australian dinosaur, but analysis of the rocks its fossils were encased in suggests it was actually from England. In fact, it could be the same as Thecodontosaurus. | Water | Common | |
Ajkaceratops kozmai | Late Cretaceous | Hungary | herbivore | Several different analyses find it in wildly different positions across the ceratopsian family tree. | Earth | Very Rare | |
Albertadromeus syntarsus | Late Cretaceous | Alberta, Canada | herbivore | This species belongs to the family Parksosauridae, but it's unknown if it burrowed like some of its relatives. | Fire | Medium Rare | |

Arcovenator escotae | Late Cretaceous | France | carnivore | It is one of the few conclusive abelisaurs known from the Northern Hemisphere. | Ice | Common | |
Arkharavia heterocoelica | Late Cretaceous | Russia | herbivore | It was originally described as a sauropod, but some of its bones might've belonged to a hadrosaur. | Time | Common | |
Arrhinoceratops brachyops | Late Cretaceous | Alberta, Canada | herbivore | Its name means "no-nose-horned-face", but, like most chasmosaurines, it did have a nose horn. | Time | Legendary | |
Atlantosaurus montanus | Late Jurassic | Colorado, United States | herbivore | Most scientists agree At. montanus is actually an Apatosaurus, but "Atlantosaurus" immanis is not. | Lightning | Common | |
Australodocus bohetii | Late Jurassic | Tanzania | herbivore | Although its name suggests a relationship to Diplodocus, it may actually be distantly related. | Air | Uncommon | |

Beipiaosaurus inexpectus | Early Cretaceous | China | herbivore | The discovery of its fossils revealed that therizinosaurs were highly unusual, feathered theropods. | Earth | Medium Rare | |
Bonapartenykus ultimus | Late Cretaceous | Argentina | carnivore | Round eggs were found next to its fossils, making them some of the few fossil eggs confidently matched with a layer. | Lightning | Mythical | |

Dysalotosaurus lettowvorbecki | Late Jurassic | Tanzania | herbivore | Its name, which means "uncatchable lizard", refers both to the fact that it was difficult for predators to catch it and to Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck, the namesake of the specific name, whom the British could never catch. | Earth | Uncommon | |
Edmontonia longiceps | Late Cretaceous | Alberta, Canada | herbivore | This nodosaur is easily recognizable by the forward-pointing paired spikes on its shoulders. | Lightning | Uncommon | |

Leonerasaurus taquetrensis | Early Jurassic | Argentina | herbivore | It may be an advanced non-sauropod sauropodomorph, or a very early sauropod. | Air | Medium Rare | |
Liaoningosaurus paradoxus | Early Cretaceous | China | carnivore | Unlike most ankylosaurs, it had sharp claws, belly plates, and had the remains of fish in its stomach. This could mean it was a semi-aquatic, turtle-like fish eater, making it a carnivorous ornithischian! | Ice | Legendary | |

However, that name didn't appear on the Internet until February 2019! | Lightning | Common | |
Moros intrepidus | Late Cretaceous | Utah, United States | carnivore | The last readily distinguishable tyrannosaur from North America lived 15 million years before it, so its discovery helped fill in a gap in the evolutionary history of tyrannosaurs. | Space | Legendary | |
