1838 I. Lenau tr. H. von Meyer in Mag. Nat. Hist. 2 550 From the upper keuper..I have examined a nearly complete set of bones of the extremities, and the vertebræ, of a new gigantic saurian: I have named it Plateosaurus.

1891 Amer. Naturalist 25 435 In 1845, H. v. Meyer introduced the name Pachypodes for the group he had established in 1830, including Iguanodon, Hylaeosaurus, Megalosaurus, Plateosaurus.

1935 R. L. Ditmars Bk. Prehistoric Animals ii. 18 Among the largest was the Plateosaurus, a lizard 20 feet long..and able to rear 12 feet high.

1964 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) B. 248 110 Vestigial clavicles have been reported by von Huene in the Triassic Plateosaurus.

2002 Los Angeles Times (Nexis) 20 May 12 Before the Jurassic, the biggest dinosaur around was probably something like plateosaurus, a long-necked, two-legged plant-eater 20 feet long.
