Its name means crested lizard. It was a duck-billed dinosaur and famous for its long tubular crest that was projected on its nape; it was hollow and contained complex tubes that served to make deep resonating sounds. It lived in dense forests where it ate leaves, twigs and pine needles. It walked and ran on two legs, and was a relatively fast dinosaur.
