Many states also have dinosaurs as state fossils , or designate named avian dinosaurs ( List of U.S. state birds ), but this list only includes those that have been officially designated as "state dinosaurs".
Fossils of Tawa-like dinosaurs have also been found in South America, which has important indications about paleogeography. During the Early Jurassic Period, dinosaurs such as Dilophosaurus, Anchisaurus, Coelophysis (formerly known as Megapnosaurus), and the early thyreophoran Scutellosaurus lived in North America.
