Jubbulpuria tenuis von Huene & Matley, 1933 |
Jubbulpuria ("Jubbulpore one") is the name given to a dubious genus of small dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It was first classified as a coelurid dinosaur similar to but smaller than Coeluroides, but it may have been a ceratosaur. Its fossil specimens, consisting solely of a partial vertebrae, were found in the Lameta Formation of India. It is estimated to have been 0.5 meters high, 1.2 meters long, and perhaps 15 kilograms.
The type species, Jubbulpuria tenuis, was described by Friedrich von Huene and Charles Alfred Matley in 1933.
