Ceratosaurus is a carnivorous theropod dinosaur genus known for its distinctive crested skull and sharp teeth. It lived in the Late Jurassic period, roughly 156 to 144 million years ago, and is one of the better-known carnivorous dinosaurs from North America. The name combines Greek roots referencing a horned lizard with a lizard-like body, though it is not closely related to lizards today.
