Explore a complete list of over 43 dinosaurs that start with the letter N.

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.

Nhandumirim

Diet: Uncertain.Size: Unknown due to lack of remains.Time Period: Late Triassic.

Niebla

Diet: Carnivore.Size: Roughly estimated at between‭ ‬4‭ ‬to‭ ‬4.5‭ ‬meters long.Time Period: Campanian/Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.

Ningyuansaurus

Diet: Uncertain,‭ ‬but possible herbivore.Size: Unavailable.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.

Niobrarasaurus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly about‭ ‬6.5‭ ‬meters long.Time Period: Santonian of the Cretaceous.

Nipponosaurus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Around four meters long,‭ ‬though possibly slightly larger when fully grown.Time Period: Santonian to early Campanian of the Cretaceous.

Noasaurus

Diet: Carnivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains,‭ ‬but roughly estimated to be about‭ ‬2.4‭ ‬meters in length.Time Period: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.

Nodocephalosaurus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to incomplete fossil remains.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Nodosaurus

Nodosaurus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Estimated between‭ ‬4‭ ‬and‭ ‬6‭ ‬meters long.Time Period: Late Cretaceous.

Nomingia

Diet: Uncertain.Size: About‭ ‬1.7‭ ‬meters long.Time Period: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.

Nopcsaspondylus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unknown.Time Period: Coniacian of the Cretaceous.

Notatesseraeraptor

Diet: Carnivore.Size: Uncertain,‭ ‬but holotype individual roughly estimated to be about‭ ‬2.6‭ ‬-‭ ‬3‭ ‬meters long.‭ ‬Holotype is of a juvenile,‭ ‬adult would have likely‭ ‬been at least slightly larger.Time Period: ‭ ‬Late Triassic.

Nothronychus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Estimated between‭ ‬4.5-6‭ ‬meters long.Time Period: Late Cenomanian to Early Turonian of the Cretaceous.

Notoceratops

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.

Notocolossus

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Humerus measures about‭ ‬1.76‭ ‬meters long.Time Period: Coniacian to Santonian of the Cretaceous.

Notohypsilophodon

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Holotype roughly about‭ ‬1.3‭ ‬meters long,‭ ‬but‭ ‬this is of a juvenile,‭ ‬fully grown adults were likely larger.Time Period: Cenomanian of the Cretaceous.

Nqwebasaurus

Diet: Omnivore‭?Size: About‭ ‬90‭ ‬centimetres long, but fully grown adults may have been larger.Time Period: Tithonian of the Jurassic to Valanginian of the Cretaceous.

Nullotitan

Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain but roughly estimated at around‭ ‬20‭ ‬meters long for the holotype.‭ ‬Humerus‭ ‬114‭ ‬centimetres long.Time Period: Argentina‭ ‬-‭ ‬Chorrillo Formation.

Nuthetes

Diet: Carnivore.Size: Highly speculative given that this genus is in essence a tooth taxon. Comparisons to dromaeosaurid dinosaurs however indicates that the holotype came from a dinosaur roughly 2 meters in length.Time Period: Berriasian of the Cretaceous.
