Stegosaurus lived between 155 and 150 million years ago. By that point, the continents had broken apart, and the seas created barriers to land animals. Thus, Stegosaurus never spread to all the continents. Stegosaurus fossils are known from North America, and its relatives, the stegosaurs, have been found in North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Dinosaurs lived before the continents separated from each other. Dinosaurs lived over wide areas in different places.
mesosaurus
All of them.
The fossil of Mesosaurus, a small aquatic reptile, was found in both South America and Africa. Its presence on different continents was used as evidence to support the theory of continental drift, as it suggested that the continents were once connected and later drifted apart.
Glossopteris is a fossil plant that has been found on multiple continents, including South America, Africa, Australia, Antarctica, and India. It is an important indicator of the past connections between these landmasses when they were part of the supercontinent Gondwana.
Yes, dinosaur fossils have been found on all continents, including Antarctica. Fossils from different regions provide valuable insights into the diversity and distribution of dinosaurs during the Mesozoic era.

The theory of Pangaea is the theory that the Earth was once covered by one giant continent or land mass. The land mass supposedly started to break apart when the dinosaurs went extinct. The theory explains why different continents look like they are part of a jigsaw puzzle, and how the same type of fossil was found on to different continents. The theory also explains why our continents today are slowly drifting apart.
There was a lot of fossils that were found but the most interesting one is the plant called Glossopteris, it was the only seed-fern plant fossil found.
The fossil symbols were helpful in deciding where to move the continents because it showed where land and water dinosaurs could and could not live, especially with the non-swimmers in Africa and South America. There is also proof of some mountains matching in Western Europe and Greenland.
Dinosaurs have been discovered in many different parts of the world, in all continents. Some examples are in the US (Montana, Arizona, Colorado, etc.), Asia (The Gobi Desert in Mongolia, China, etc.), Australia, Europe, Africa.
the first fossil ever found was found in 1676 called megalosaurus
