  4. Well I've done some research for you and I've found 4, which I'll list below with the descriptions, as you asked for, and links to pictures of each one. (Sorry but I don't know how to put photos on here!) The 1st link below has pictures for both the Kritosaurus and the Kentrosaurus, the 2nd link has a picture for the Kotasaurus and the 3rd link has a picture for the Khaan.

    KENTROSAURUS:

    Pronunciation: KEN-truh-SAWR-us  

    Translation: Spiked Lizard

    Also known as: Kentrurosaurus

    Description: Herbivore, Quadrupedal

    Order: Ornithischia

    Suborder: Thyreophora

    Infraorder: Stegosauria

    Family: Stegosauridae

    Height: 6 feet (1.8 meters)

    Length: 18 feet (5.5 meters)

    Weight: 4,000 pounds (1,814 kg)

    Period: Late Jurassic



    Notes: Kentrosaurus was discovered in Tanzania. A stegosaurid, it had paired plates that ran through the middle of its back. At midback, the plates were replaced by spikes that ran to the tip of its tail. Another pair of spikes jutted horizontally from its shoulders. Its feet were marked by claws that were more hoof-like than spiked. Males and females appear to have had differing numbers of ribs.

    KOTASAURUS:

    Pronunciation: KOH-tuh-SAWR-us  

    Translation: Kota (Formation) Lizard

    Also known as:

    Description: Herbivore, Quadrupedal

    Order: Saurischia

    Suborder: Sauropodomorpha

    Infraorder: Sauropoda or Prosauropoda

    Family:

    Height:

    Length:

    Weight:

    Period: Early Jurassic



    Notes: Kotasaurus may be the oldest sauropod, sharing the characteristics (mainly in the hip and pelvic region) of both prosauropods and sauropods.

    KRITOSAURUS:

    Pronunciation: CRY-tuh-SAWR-us  

    Translation: Noble Lizard

    Also known as: Gryposaurus (not confirmed)

    Description: Herbivore, Bipedal

    Order: Ornithischia

    Suborder: Ornithopoda

    Infraorder: Iguanodontia

    Family: Hadrosauridae

    Height: 23 feet (7 meters)

    Length: 30 feet (9.1 meters)

    Weight: 5,950 pounds (2,700 kg)

    Period: Late Cretaceous



    Notes: Kritosaurus was found in New Mexico by Barnum Brown, the great American Museum of Natural History collector. This duckbill dinosaur had a wide, flat skull and a ridge of bone just below its eyes. This would have given its mouth and snout the appearance of a "Roman Nose," hence its name "Noble Lizard." There is considerable evidence that Kritosaurus and Gryposaurus are the same species but there appear to be differences in their tooth structure.

    KHAAN:

    Length:  up to 1.8 m

    Diet: omnivorous

    Period: Upper Cretaceous

    Ages: Campanian

    Time span: 81-75 Ma

    Found in: Mongolia

    Locality: Ömnögov’
