Prehistoric Beasts Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Last full accuracy audit: 2026-09-02 · 10 entries checked · 2 flagged · 2 issues confirmed · 2 corrected · 0 still open

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Abelisauridae — The entry states that abelisaurids possibly first appeared during the Early Jurassic based on Eoabelisaurus, but Eoabelisaurus is from the Middle Jurassic, not the Early Jurassic.

Ceratopsia — The flag correctly identifies that the statement is factually incorrect: Monoclonius was named in 1876, while Ceratops was described in 1888, which is after, not before, 1876. Additionally, Joseph Leidy's finds like Trachodon or Thespesius were not ceratopsian
