Best Answer

There were a number of dinosaurs that were related to Stegosaurus and also had two rows of plates on their backs. One example is Kentrosaurus, which was a lot like Stegosaurus but lived in Africa. Another example is Hesperosaurus, which was related to the ancestors of Stegosaurus.

Theropods were bipedal, lizard hipped dinosaurs, and most were carnivorous. Sauropods were large, four legged, herbivorous, long necked, lizard hipped dinosaurs. Hadrosaurs and iguanodonts were beaked, herbivorous dinosaurs with longer hind limbs than forelimbs, and an ability to chew effectively. Ceratopsians were herbivorous dinosaurs with a beak, an ability to chew, and a frill; many also had horns. Pachycephalosaurs were probably herbivorous dinosaurs that were bipedal with thick flank muscles and a bony "helmet" that was used for flank butting. Ankylosaurs were heavily built, short legged, herbivorous dinosaurs that were covered in bony armor for protection; many had tail clubs for defense. Stegosaurs were herbivores that had longer hind limbs than forelimbs, that had two parallel rows of triangular, bony plates, one on either side of its spine, and four tail spikes for self defense.
