From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Streptospondylus is a dubious genus of dinosaur known from the Middle Jurassic period of England, 150 million years ago. Originally described as a crocodilian, five species have been named, several of which may belong to Iguanodon. At least one species (S. cuvieri) may actually be a megalosauroid theropod, similar to Eustreptospondylus.
