ceratopsian ceratopsian dinosaurs, which lived in the
late Cretaceous period, approximately 68 and 66
million years ago, in the Maastrichtian, in what is
now North America.
brachiosaurus
Brachiosaurus altithorax (from the Greek "deep thorax arm lizard"),
lexicalized as brachiosaurus, is the only known species of the extinct
genus Brachiosaurus of brachyosaurid sauropod dinosaur, which lived
during the Upper Jurassic, approximately 154 and 153 million years
ago, from the Kimmeridgian to Titonian in what is now North
America. It was first described by Elmer S. Riggs in 1903 from fossils
found in the Grand Canyon River, now the Colorado River of western
Colorado, in sediments from the famous Morrison Formation, United
States. Brachiosaurus has an extremely long neck, a small skull, and
large overall size, all of which are typical features of sauropods.
