Fabrosaurus , named after Jean-Henri Fabre , is a little-known bird-pelvis dinosaur from the ornithopoda group . The genus is only known from a lower jaw fragment with three teeth. The find comes from Lesotho in southern Africa. Due to the sparse traditions,however, Fabrosaurus is considered a nomen dubium and could be a synonym for Lesothosaurus .
