"Saltriosaurus" (Saltrio-lizard) is the informal name for a theropod dinosaur that lived during the Jurassic period. It was found in 1996, when Angelo Zanella discovered its remains in a quarry in Saltrio, in northern Italy. Very little is known about the dinosaur. The name "Saltriosaurus," given to it in 2000 by Dal Sasso, is a nomen nudum."Saltriosaurus" is thought to have resembled Allosaurus, and is the oldest known three-fingered dinosaur. Like Allosaurus, it appears to have been carnivorous and is estimated to have weighed about 500 kilograms (1,100 lb). |
