Dinosaurs That Start With K
Explore a complete list of over 38 dinosaurs that start with the letter K.
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: Roughly about†‬15†‬meters long,†‬though
only the skull and some cervical vertebrae have survived a fire at the
American Museum of Natural History.Time Period: Kimmeridgian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains.Time Period: Bathonian to Callovian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unknown.Time Period: Coniacian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Presumed carnivore.Size: Uncertain due to incomplete remains,†‬but
estimated between†‬2†‬to†‬3†‬meters long.Time Period: Early Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: About eight meters long.Time Period: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unknown due to lack of fossil remains.Time Period: Early Cretaceous.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Unknown due to lack of fossil remains.Time Period: Santonian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unknown due to incomplete remains.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of fossils and the fact
that the holotype is of a juvenile.†‬Still holotype is estimated to
have been around†‬50†‬centimetres tall at the hip.Time Period: Sinemurian/Pliensbachian of the
Jurassic.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Uncertain.Time Period: Late Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Estimated between†‬8†‬and†‬9†‬meters long.Time Period: Campanian/Maastrichtian of the
Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore/low browser.Size: Commonly 4.5 meters, isolated remains indicate
larger individuals potentially up to†‬5.5†‬meters.Time Period: Kimmeridgian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of fossil remains, but
estimates range about 8 meters total body length.Time Period: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Omnivoreâ€?Size: Approximately about†‬110†‬centimetres longâ€
(‬not including feathersâ€)‬.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly estimated to be about†‬9†‬meters
long.Time Period: Norian of the Triassic.

Diet: Unknown.Size: Uncertain due to incomplete remains.Time Period: Valanginian to Hauterivian of the
Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly about†‬12-15†‬meters long.Time Period: Oxfordian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Insectivore�Size: At least†‬120†‬centimetres long based
upon scaling analysis of known fossils to more complete relative genera, but possibly larger at around 2 meters long.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to incomplete remains.Time Period: Albian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly about 1.8-2 meters long.Time Period: Santonian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of fossils with known
elements probably representing juvenile individuals.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
