Triassic dinosaurs

101 genera whose first appearance in the Paleobiology Database falls in the Triassic period (251.9 to 201.4 million years ago).

Genera are assigned to a period from their PBDB first-appearance age. Genera with no recorded age, or an age outside the Mesozoic, are listed only on the A-Z index.

Triassic genera by diet

47 of the 101 Triassic genera on this page (46.5%) have a diet value recorded in their own PBDB record: 25 carnivore, 22 herbivore. 54 carry no recorded diet value and so appear on no diet page.

Counts are taken from the diet value recorded on each genus page. The diet pages list the genera behind these counts.
