Dinosaurs That Start With H
Explore a complete list of over 41 dinosaurs that start with the letter H.
Each dinosaur listed has a dedicated page with information on classification, diet, size, fossil evidence, geographic distribution, and maps of known fossil locations, where available. Pages may also include size comparison charts, fossil representations, and in-depth descriptions based on current scientific research.
The amount of information varies by species, depending on the completeness of fossil discoveries.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to a severe lack of remains.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of fossil remains,â€
‬however,†‬humerus is recorded as being†‬59.9†‬centimetres long,â€
‬ulna,†‬42.1†‬centimetres long and radius†‬40.4†‬centimetres long.â€
‬Using more complete genera such as Camarasaurus
results in a
reconstructed length of about 6.5 meters long,†‬though this is just a
best guess.Time Period: Late Berriasian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Omnivore�Size: Uncertain due to the fact that the holotype
specimen is a single hand which is about†‬30†‬centimetres long.â€
‬Assuming that this hand is scaled to the same approximate body
proportions as other related oviraptorids,†‬then the holotype
individual of Hagryphus might be about†‬3†‬meters
long.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Piscivore�Size: Skull to sacrum length†= ‬45†‬centimetres.Time Period: Campanian� ‬of the Cretaceous.
Diet: â€C‬arnivore.Size: Roughly estimated to be about 5.5 meters long.Time Period: Norian of the Triassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of fossil remains.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Known to be up to†‬14.8†‬meters long.Time Period: Kimmeridgian to Tithonian of the
Jurassic.
Diet: Insectivore�Size: 2†‬meters long.Time Period: Oxfordian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Possibly omnivorous.Size: 2 meters long.Time Period: Albian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: 1.3†‬meters long.Time Period: Aptian to Cenomanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: â€C‬arnivore.Size: ‬Largest known skull is up to†‬56â€
‬centimetres long, suggesting largest known individuals approached 5 to
6 meters long.Time Period: Ladinian to early Carnian of the
Triassic.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Possibly up to†‬1†‬meter long for the
holotype individual.Time Period: Tithonian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Estimated abount†6†‬ to 7 meters long.Time Period: Kimmeridgian/Tithonian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore/Omnivore�Size: At least 1.2 meters long. partial skull
fossils from another individual that when scaled to more complete
individuals indicate that some individuals of Heterodontosaurus may
have grown larger at up to 1.75 meters.Time Period: Early Sinemurian of the Jurassic for
South African fossils.†‬Possibly as far back as the Norian of the
Triassic,†‬through to the Pleinsbachian of the Jurassic.†‬See main
text.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Up to about ‬1.2†‬meters long.Time Period: Bajocian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Uncertain.Size: At least†‬1.5†‬meters long.Time Period: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly about 4.5 meters long.Time Period: Barremian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unavailable.Time Period: Late Hauterivian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: 1.5†to 1.8 ‬meters long.Time Period: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to incomplete remains,†‬but
possibly up to†‬1.2†‬meters tall at the hips.Time Period: Barremian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly estimated at about†‬5†‬meters long.Time Period: Barremian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Insectivore/Carnivore�Size: Unavailable.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: About†‬20†‬meters long.Time Period: Cenomanian to Campanian of the
Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Skull roughly estimated about†‬24.5â€
‬centimetres long.†‬Total body length uncertain due to lack of remains.Time Period: Oxfordian of the Jurassic.
