Viveram entre 245 e 208 milhões de anos atrás. De tamanho médio, eram quadrúpedes relativamente ágeis e levemente encouraçados - com corpos cobertos por ossos dérmicos da nunca até a cauda. Seus dentes curvos e pontiagudos não deixam dúvidas de que eram carnívoros - podendo ter sido predadores e até carniceiros eventuais.
They lived between 245 and 208 million years ago. Of medium size, they were relatively agile and lightly armored quadrupeds - with bodies covered by dermal bones from the nape to the tail. Their curved and pointed teeth leave no doubt that they were carnivores - they could have been predators as well occasional scavengers.
