Monolophosaurus was a mid sized theropod that was about 5–6 meters in length, and weighing up to 1,500 pounds. This predator is most famous by its head crest, though it is more advanced then the primitive crested dinosaurs like Dilophosaurus. It was known to hunt in packs to bring downs sauropods like the more advanced carnivores during the later times of the Jurassic. It had lots of sharp, serrated teeth and a big, skinny head. The area that Monolophosaurus was found showed signs of water, so it is possible that this dinosaur probably lived on the shore of lakes and oceans.

  • Monolophosaurus is a genus of tetanuran theropod from the Middle Jurassic of China.
  • Monolophosaurus (along with its close relative Chuandongocoelurus) is located so early in the family tree for Tetanurae that it is too primitive to be included in any other named clade.
  • A nearly complete skeleton was unearthed in 1984. At first, before description in the scientific literature, it was known in the press as "Jiangjunmiaosaurus", a nomen nudum.[3][6] In 1993 Zhao and Currie named the type species Monolophosaurus jiangi; the species name refers to Jiangjunmiao ("an abandoned desert inn") near which the holotype IVPP 84019 was found.[3][7] Monolophosaurus was originally termed a "megalosaur" and has often since been suggested to be an allosauroid. Carr (2006) even suggested that the "proceratosaurid" "tyrannosauroid" Guanlong was a subadult Monolophosaurus and therefore an "allosauroid",[8] by noting both taxa have a large, thin, and fenestrated midline crest, but this is probably not the case.
