Information about the Coelophysis:
The Coelophysis is an extinct species of dinosaur, first described by Edward Drinker Cope in 1889. The name means “hollow form” which is a reference to the animal’s hollow bones. It is one of the earliest known genera of dinosaur. The Coelophysis was a small biped that lived during the Late Triassic (Norian stage) This carnivore lived in what is now the southwestern United States. This lightweight and agile dinosaur grew to about 9 feet long (3 meters.) With it’s large eyes it had exceptionally good eyesight. This animal likely feed exclusively on meat. While it might have been a scavenger, feeding on whatever dead animal it might have encountered it is also possible that it was a predator, hunting in packs or in pairs – which would make it easier to take down prey larger than itself. It is the official fossil of the state of New Mexico in the USA.

Artist’s notes:
The Coelophysis was completed on 2.13.2013. This dinosaur – for the state of New Mexico – marks the final of the official state dinosaurs I will be drawing for the 50 State project. When I began the project over a year ago, I originally thought I would leave out all state fossils and dinosaurs. But as I had already drawn a few of them, I figured this would be a good method to get several more dinos into the illustration library. The drawing is based on a sketch by Carl Buell, and without his help I’m uncertain that I could have completed all of the needed drawings.
