Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Coelurus is a genus of coelurosaur dinosaur from the Late Jurassic period. The name means hollow tail", referring to its hollow tail vertebrae. Although its name is linked to one of the main divisions of theropods, it has historically been poorly understood, and sometimes confused with its better-known contemporary Ornitholestes. Like many dinosaurs studied in the early years of paleontology, it has had a confusing taxonomic history, with several species being named and later transferred to other genera or abandoned. Only one species is currently recognized as valid: the type species, C. fragilis, described by Othniel Charles Marsh in 1879. It is known from one partial skeleton found in the Morrison Formation of Wyoming, United States. It was a small bipedal carnivore with elongate legs. "
