Chromogisaurus

Wikipedia Abstract

Chromogisaurus is a sauropodomorph which existed in Argentina during the late Triassic period. Chromogisaurus was first named by Martín Daniel Ezcurra in 2010, and the type species is Chromogisaurus novasi. The generic name is derived from Greek chroma, "colour", and gè, "earth", a reference to the Valle Pintado, the "Painted Valley". The specific name honours Fernando Emilio Novas. Chromogisaurus was a herbivore and about two metres long. According to Ezcurra it was optionally quadrupedal.
