Description: Quaesitosaurus is a genus of small, herbivorous dinosaurs that lived during the Early Cretaceous period, about 130-122 million years ago. It was first discovered in the Hauterivian stage of the Cretaceous in what is now Inner Mongolia, China. The only known species of Quaesitosaurus is Quaesitosaurus orientalis. Quaesitosaurus was a small, slender dinosaur that probably stood on its hind legs and had long, thin arms and legs. It had a small head with a long, narrow snout, and a row of small, sharp teeth. It is thought to have had a beak-like structure at the front of its mouth that it used to crop plants. Quaesitosaurus was likely a herbivore, feeding on a variety of plants, including ferns, cycads, and conifers. It may have lived in herds and moved around in search of food.
