Massospondylidae

Description
Source: Wikipédia
Les Massospondylidae forment une famille éteinte de dinosaures saurischiens du clade des Plateosauria et de celui des Massopoda qui vécurent du Trias supérieur au Jurassique inférieur (il y a environ entre 204 et 190 millions d'années, du Rhétien jusqu'au Pliensbachien), dans ce qui constitue aujourd'hui l'Amérique, l'Asie et l'Afrique.
Les Massospondylidae font partie du sous-ordre des Sauropodomorpha, lesquels étaient des dinosaures herbivores au long cou. Ils appartiennent à l'infra-ordre paraphylétique des Prosauropoda dans certaines classifications évolutionnistes.
Les Massospondylidae peuvent inclure les genres Coloradisaurus, Glacialisaurus, Lufengosaurus et Massospondylus. De récentes analyses phylogénétiques ont trouvé une parenté avec les genres Coloradisaurus, Lufengosaurus et Massospondylus, et potentiellement avec Glacialisaurus et Adeopapposaurus.
