The temperature-control theory has recently been discounted, since the closest relative to the common plate-wielding species, Stegosaurus stenops, had low surface area spikes instead of plates, implying that cooling was not important enough to require specialized structural formations such as plates.
The first Stegosaurus fossil was found in Colorado, USA, in 1876 by M. P. Felch. It was named in 1877 by Othniel C. Marsh. The most complete Stegosaurus fossil ever found was nicknamed Spike. It was discovered in Colorado, USA, by Bryan Small, Tim Seeber and Kenneth Carpenter in 1992.
