<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="massospondylus"></dinofyi-dinosaur>Nesoenas duboisi was an extinct pigeon from Réunion Island in the Mascarenes.

Time Period
Massospondylus lived during the Jurassic Early period of the Mesozoic Era, approximately 201.4 to 174.7 million years ago.
After the Triassic-Jurassic extinction, dinosaurs rapidly diversified and became the dominant land vertebrates. Early sauropods and theropods began to evolve larger body sizes.
