included Saurornitholestes, Dromaeosaurus, and the
tyrannosaurs Daspletosaurus and Gorgosaurus. The bestpreserved
skeleton of Struthiomimus is currently on display at the
American Museum of Natural History, in Manhattan, New York.
The best skull is currently on display at the Royal Tyrrell Museum
of Palaeontology, in Drumheller, Alberta, Canada (Wikipedia;
Khalaf-von Jaffa, 2006).
Struthiomimus is also known from the Horseshoe Canyon
Formation of Alberta and the Hell Creek Formation of Montana,
suggesting that the dinosaur may have lived along the river banks
of its day. These animals have not been thoroughly studied yet
but they may represent new species of Struthiomimus (Wikipedia;
Khalaf-von Jaffa, 2006).
Elaphrosaurus:
Elaphrosaurus was one of the earliest ornithomimids (ostrich
dinosaurs), Elaphrosaurus was a relative of Dromiceiomimus,
Gallimimus, Ornithomimus, and Struthiomimus. It was probably
one of the earliest members of that family and fossil bones have
been found that date back to the late Jurassic period. Most "ostrich
dinosaurs" are found from the Cretaceous period. A distant
relative is Ornitholestes, a small dinosaur only half the size of
Elaphrosaurus (Wikipedia; Khalaf-von Jaffa, 2006).
Elaphrosaurus was a carnivore from late Jurassic Tanzania, 145 to
150 million years ago. Scientists aren't sure what its head looked
like, as its skull was never found. Elaphrosaurus was probably a
medium-sized, but lightly built, bipedal, carnivore Ceratosaur
and probably was about 6.2 meters (20 feet) long. It was
discovered by the German paleontologist Werner Janensch, in the
Tendaguru Beds of Tanzania, which has also yielded
Brachiosaurus, Allosaurus, and Kentrosaurus, to name a few
(Wikipedia; Khalaf-von Jaffa, 2006).
