phylum | Chordata | Desmatosuchus was one of the largest aetosaurs, being 5 metres (16 ft) long and about 1.50 m (5 ft) high. It lived during the Late Triassic in Texas.
Desmatosuchus possessed an armored body and pig-like head. It had a shovel-like snout and weak teeth that suggest it lived by uprooting soft plants. For more information, visit the Wikipedia entry. Get back to Aetosauria |
