Meaning of "camarasaurus" in English

Camarasaurus is a genus of herbivorous dinosaurs that lived during the Late Jurassic period, approximately 155 to 145 million years ago. This dinosaur is recognized for its distinct large square-shaped skull and large nostrils positioned in front of its eyes. The name "Camarasaurus" means "chambered lizard," which refers to the hollow chambers in its vertebrae that likely helped reduce the weight of its massive body. Fossil evidence of Camarasaurus is particularly notable from the Morrison Formation of North America.
