Originally a species of Megalosaurus, Metriacanthosaurus is know its own genus. The animal was one of the top predators of its time and a fierce hunter. It had a low sail or hump on its back, similar to acrocanthosaurus, but smaller. Its name means moderately spined lizard. Metriacanthosaurus is one of my favourite jurassic dinosaurs.
