Stegosaurus had 17 bony plates on its back. The plates were arranged in two rows, one one each side of the spine, and rather than the plates being directly across from each other, they alternated, with a plate on one side, then a plate on the other side, and then a plate on the first side again. In addition to plates, they had four bony spikes called thagomizers at the end of the tail.
