Dinosaurs That Start With P
Explore a complete list of over 81 dinosaurs that start with the letter P.
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 lack of remains,†‬but
comparison estimates suggest upto†‬4.5†‬meters long for the total
body length.Time Period: †‬Albian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: CarnivoreSize: UnknownTime Period: Maastrichtian of the Late Cretaceous
Diet: Carnivore/Insectivore.Size: Possibly up to†‬1†‬meter long.Time Period: Callovian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore�Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains,†‬but
estimated at around†‬60†‬centimetres long.Time Period: Hettangian to Sinemurian of the
Jurassic.
Diet: Piscivore/Carnivore.Size: Estimated up to†‬2.5†‬meters long.Time Period: Barremian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly estimated between†‬20-25†‬meters
long.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Between†‬5†‬to†‬5.5†‬meters long.Time Period: Aptian/Albian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Estimated about†‬16†‬meters long.Time Period: Mid Tithonian to end of the early
Cretaceous.
Diet: Insectivore/Carnivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains.Time Period: Late Triassic
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unknown.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Uncertain.Size: Unavailable.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Average seems to be around 6 meters long,
though several specimens have been estimated at around 6.5 to 7 meters
long.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unknown due to lack of fossil remains.Time Period: Early/Mid Jurassic.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Unknown due to lack of fossil remains.Time Period: Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Unknown due to lack of remains.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Roughly about†‬12.2†‬meters long.Time Period: Barremian/Aptian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Tibia of holotype individual roughly about 66
centimetres long. Total body estimate roughly up to 5.5 meters long.Time Period: Barremian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains.†‬However
upon the basis of comparison of the lower jaws to other similarly sized
noeornithischians,†‬Phyllodon would have been somewhere betweenâ€
‬1-2-†‬meters long.Time Period: Kimmeridgian of the Jurassic.
Diet: â€C‬arnivore.Size: About†‬4.3†‬meters long.Time Period: Callovian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unavailable.Time Period: Valanginian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: â€H‬erbivore.Size: About†‬5†‬meters long.Time Period: Late Santonian to Campanian of the
Cretaceous.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Up to about†‬1†‬meter long.Time Period: Carnian of the Triassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Unavailable.Time Period: Campanian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Carnivore.Size: Uncertain due to lack of remains,†‬though
comparisons to other theropod fossils indicates that it was at least a
large theropod,†‬possibly around the nine meter mark.Time Period: Upper Callovian of the Jurassic.
Diet: Herbivore.Size: Estimated about†‬6†‬meters long.Time Period: Barremian of the Cretaceous.
