OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nuthetes is the name given to a dubious, possibly , genus of dinosaur, known only from fossil teeth and jaw fragments found in rocks of the middle Berriasian (Early Cretaceous) age in the Cherty Freshwater Member of the Lulworth Formation in England. As a dromaeosaurid Nuthetes would have been a small predator, about two metres long.The genus Nuthetes contains one species (the type species), Nuthetes destructor. N. destructor was named and described by Richard Owen in 1854. The generic name Nuthetes is derived from the Koine Greek nouthetes, a contraction of I I?I...I I-I I*I I*IC (nouthetetes) meaning one who admonishes or a monitor, in reference to the similarity of Nuthetes teeth to those of a modern monitor lizard. The specific name is Latin for destroyer , a reference to the adaptations of the teeth for piercing, cutting, and lacerating the prey of a form he estimated to be equal in size to the present Bengal monitor.
