Although some dinosaurs were probably able to swim there were no true marine dinosaurs. There were marine reptiles that some colloquially refer to as dinosaurs, but these were actually a separate group called plesiosaurs.

Another group that lived in the age of the dinosaurs were the flying reptiles pterosaurs. These are also incorrectly referred to as dinosaurs by many, but they were themselves a separate but closely related group.

However, fossil evidence shows that birds are descended from small carnivorous dinosaurs and can in fact be classified as modern dinosaurs.
