恐龍的體型
恐龍的體型將目前已知的不同恐龍生物群中,最大、最重與最小的成員列表出來。
備註:這個列表並不包含未公佈的化石。恐龍的體重估計值比身長估計值變化範圍更大,因為使用已滅絕動物的骨骸來估計牠們的身長較為容易。
獸腳亞目
最重的獸腳亞目
1霸王龙: 4.5—9.5 t(5.0—10.5 short ton)[7][8][9]
2南方巨兽龙: 6—8.5 t(6.6—9.4 short ton) [10][11][12][13]
3棘龙: 6—8.5 t(6.6—9.4 short ton)[14][12][15]
4鲨齿龙: 4—8.2 t(4.4—9.0 short ton)[10][16][12]
5魁纣龙: 4.9—7.5 t(5.4—8.3 short ton)[4][10]
6高棘龍: 2.4—7.3 t(2.6—8.0 short ton)[10][17][18]
7恐手龙: 5—6.8 t(5.5—7.5 short ton)[19][4]
8似鳄龙: 2.5—6.5 t(2.8—7.2 short ton)[2][16][4]
9奥沙拉龙: 5—6.4 t(5.5—7.1 short ton)[20]
最小的獸腳亞目(不包含鳥類)
以下為身長小於或等于80cm的獸腳類恐龍(不包含鳥類):
蜥脚形亚目
蜥脚形亚目恐龍的化石經常處於破碎的狀態,因此很難估計牠們的體型。而且牠們的化石常缺乏尾部,所以估計值的錯誤範圍很大。恐龍體重的計算方式是採用身長的三次方,而蜥腳類恐龍的身長大多無法確定,因此更難以估計牠們的體重。以下估計值主要根據Gavinrymill、Miketaylor (页面存档备份,存于)、以及 Mortimer (页面存档备份,存于)等人的論敘。而化石非常破碎,或是化石已遺失的物種,都標上問號。
巨型蜥腳類恐龍通常可以分為兩群:一群的體型較短、較粗壯,但體重較大,主要為泰坦巨龍類與腕龍科;另一群的體型較為修長,但體重較輕,主要為梁龍科。
