Dinosaurs I Quiz

You will need a eye for detail for these. To me, all the dinosaurs fall into about four main groups, but these were the winners in a poll of American schoolkids in answer to what is your favourite dinosaur ? Two lots of a dozen to identify, here's the first lot :

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
11.
12.

Extra clue - these are A-M, the second lot will be N-Z.

1pt for each. Good luck !

1. Diplodicus
8. Brontesaurus
9. Ankylosaur

The first entry is from our resident natural history expert..........

Ok, Jill 0.5 for diplodocus as it's the answer to another one. ;)
8) brontosaurus correct, this one's actually the apatosaurus variety. 1.0pt
Finally 9) ankylosaurus is correct. 1.0pt

3. Diplodicus

Sounds like the Latin name for a slow two down one up Jersey player. ;D

H & J get the other half point for recognising the correct answer to diplodocus as number 3.

Sav meanwhile would be entitled to a halfpoint bonus for a droll comment - but only if he is willing to name who he had in mind. ;)

1.Brachiosaurus
11.Archaeopteryx

Sorry for the delay in response, didn't spot at first and then I have been caught up in other things.

Anyway, 2 points for those answers. Brachiosaurus is correct for 1) and athough 11) is actually a Raptor, or Dromaesaurid, it's too similar to the Archaeopteryx for me not to give it.

Leaderboard:

1. H & J 3pts
2. Wolfman 2pts

Dinosaurs I is now extinct, so here are the missing answers:

2) Allosaurus
4) Gigantosaurus (a form of T Rex)
5) Maiasaura
6) Iguanodon (surprised nobody got that)
7) Deinonychus
10) Compsognathus
12) Megaraptor

Well done to natural historians Harry, Jill, Ken and Sarah.
