Epidexipteryx was created in 2008.
Epidexipteryx is a genus of paravian dinosaurs. They are very small.
It is pronounced as "eh-pee-DEX-ih-TER-iks."
Epidexipteryx is the smallest known dinosaur. It weighed only 0.36 lb.
The lightest known dinosaur, other than birds, was Epidexipteryx. It weighed only 0.36 lb.
At only 25 centimeters long, Epidexipteryx is the smallest-known non-avian dinosaur. Its tail feathers are not counted in its official length.
Epidexipteryx is the smallest known dinosaur. It was a feathered theropod less than 10 inches long and weighing about 0.36 lb.
Compsognathus was once thought to be the smallest known dinosaur. However, smaller dinosaurs have since been discovered, such as Epidexipteryx.
The smallest known dinosaur is Epidexipteryx, and it weighed only 0.36 lb. The largest known dinosaur with well preserved remains was Argentinosaurus, which weighed up to 80 tons.
There were many different types of dinosaurs; some were tiny and some were enormous. The smallest known dinosaur was Epidexipteryx, weighing only 0.36 lb. The largest known from well preserved specimens is Argentinosaurus, weighing up to 80 tons.
The dinosaurs varied in size. The current record holder for the largest, Amphicoelias fragilimus was about 60 metres long and weighed about 122 tonnes. On the other end of the scale, Epidexipteryx hui, a strange dinosaur with long index fingers that very likely lived in trees, was about 25 centimetres long and weighed 164 grams.
Epidexipteryx. It was smaller than a crow. But a dino called Anchiornis will be smaller than Epidexipteryx in weight.This is a list of smallest dinos by length.Epidexipteryx: 25 cm (9.8 in)Anchiornis: 34 cm (1.12 ft)Jinfengopteryx: 55 cm (1.80 ft)Echinodon: 60 cm (2.0 ft)Gracilliceratops: 60 cm (2.0 ft)Shuuvia: 60 cm (2.0 ft)Wannanosaurus: 60 cm (2.0 ft)Gasparinisaura: 65 cm (2.13 ftFruitadens: 65-75 cm (2.13-2.46 ft)Protarcheopteryx: 70 cm (2.3 ft)This is a list of smallest dinos by weight.Anchironis: 110 gEpidexipteryx: 164 gCompsognathus: 0.26 kg-3.5 kgJurvenator: 0.34 kgFruitadens: 0.50 kg-0.75 kgSinosauropteryx: 0.55 kgMicroraptor: 1 kg
Actually, the smallest known dinosaurs were even smaller than chickens. Epidexipteryx weighed only 0.36 lb, and was less than 10 inches long. You are probably referring to Compsognathus, which was actually somewhat larger than a chicken (the chicken sized estimate was based on a fossil of a juvenile before it was realized that the individual was not fully grown).
