The name refers to the hollow bones.Coelophysis 220-200000000 lived years ago during the late Triassic. It 'was about 1-3 meters long and weighs about 30 kg.

He had a long slender neck. Coelophysis was a double-hinged jaw so that prey can cut with a sawing action, if necessary. Its jaws were many small, sharp teeth, indicating that it was a carnivore. She even ate Coelophsis others. It was built for speed.

In 1947, hundreds of Coelophysis skeletons were found buried together in New Mexico. Paleontologists believe they likely died in a flash flood.Plateosaurus (say PLAT-ee-oh-SAW-rus)

And '22-215000000 lived some years ago during the Late Triassic. Its name means "lizard dish."
