Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })As just about any six-year-old will eagerly tell you, dinosaurs are awesome. And from Hollywood's point of view, they make for great, epic beasts and terrifying monsters, particularly given the fact that they actually existed at one point. Hence, it's only natural that writers would want to include dinosaurs and other extinct creatures in their stories.
Unfortunately, most writers only know a few types of dinosaur. Even dino enthusiasts may be forced to avoid lesser-known dino species, in case the viewers don't get it. As a result of this, series featuring dinosaurs, whether as a result of Time Travel or being set in Prehistoria or 1 Million B.C., are almost guaranteed to feature at least one of the following:

"Il Pianeta dei Dinosauri" (Planet of Dinosaurs) was an Italian documentary from 1993, the same year in which Jurassic Park was broadcast in this country. It was extremely well-informed and popular, to the point to be translated in English and French and broadcast in USA, Britain, and other countries worldwide. note  In Italy was nearly as popular as Jurassic Park itself, and stood the competition from the WWD series in the 2000s. Even though inaccuracies are present (a bit of Anachronism Stew), they are balanced out by the host pointing out the uncertainty of scientific statements. Prehistoric Monster is almost averted as well. It’s hosted by the most popular Italian science writer (Piero Angela), and has Dale Russell as the main paleontological consultant. Curiously, Angela appears split in two "twin hosts" which talk each other: one remains in the studio (shaped like a hi-tech prehistoric cave), while the other time travels in a "mesozoic world" and interacts with living dinosaurs (animatronic puppets: CGI was still an unknown thing in docus). Like in WWD, landscapes are filmed from Real Life. Particularly remembered is the dramatic asteroid scene in the last episode. There's also the synth-played score. Most of the robotic dinosaurs are classic stock, with only two being rare-stock, and almost every pre-Jurassic Park stock dinosaur is shown in the mesozoic travel. Many of them could appear inaccurate to modern eyes, but these mistakes are mainly due to Science Marches On.
Large theropods are represented mainly by Tyrannosaurus rex (the undisputed dino-star of the show), with Allosaurus making only a brief apparition. Both roar continuously, but only the allosaur tries to eat the human.
The chosen dromaeosaurids were Deinonychus and Dromaeosaurus (Velociraptor became stock just that year). Both are featherless, and the latter are portrayed as pack-hunters that attack a much larger animal, rip its flesh with their sickle claws and begin to eat it alive. Deinonychus is also wrongly portrayed living in the Late Cretaceous, and its puppet gets re-used for Dromaeosaurus.
Other small theropods include Coelophysis (the show opener), a featherless and egg-stealing (but also crestless) Oviraptor, and a brief apparition of also-featherless Struthiomimus.
The sauropods are almost always Brontosaurus (actually more similar to Diplodocus). In the first episode, one brontosaur almost hits the human with its tail. Brachiosaurus is only briefly shown. The robotic Brontosaurus later gets reused for Mamenchisaurus. The prosauropod Plateosaurus is portrayed too - mostly quadrupedal, and to show the rise to power of dinosaurs.
A sleeping Stegosaurus, inaccurately postured, is accidentally woken by the human in the first episode and reacts. Ankylosaurus shows up only in the last episode (about dinosaur extinction), and is unusually accurate (except for the tail club which is two-lobed like Euoplocephalus).
Triceratops is the chosen ceratopsid. It doesn’t battle with T. rex, but in the 2nd episode one young is eaten alive by the theropod in a heartbreaking scene. In the same episode, one adult female chases the human away from her nest. Protoceratops appears only in the form of eggs eaten by Oviraptor. Two oversized (8 m long) Pachycephalosaurus headbutt each other.
Hadrosaurs show up in all four episodes, in the usual role of prey for T. rex and "raptors" (and also for the giant croc Deinosuchus, who fails the attack). No fewer than four kinds appear: Parasaurolophus, Corythosaurus, Edmontosaurus and “Anatosaurus” (the latest two were still considered distinct at the time). Strangely, the documentary forgets to mention just the most iconic European dinosaur, Iguanodon.
The third episode is specially dedicated to pterosaurs and sea reptiles. The chosen pterosaurs are Rhamphorhynchus, Pterodactylus, Pteranodon, and Quetzalcoatlus. Sea reptiles are Ichthyosaurus, Elasmosaurus (with flexible neck), and Kronosaurus, who collides with the human’s submarine in one scene. (Liopleurodon became stock only after WWD). The most remembered scene, however, is the human hang gliding near a gigantic Quetzalcoatlus and getting attacked by the latter.
Fossil pieces shown in the studio include a Triceratops skull, but also the Deinocheirus arms, a Therizinosaurus claw, and an "Ultrasaurus" limb. Many other animals are mentioned: among them, Protoceratops (included the famous skeleton clutched with Velociraptor) Styracosaurus, pterosaurs, Archaeopteryx, Ichthyornis, Hesperornis, mosasaurs, plesiosaurs, armored fish, trilobites, Dimetrodon, therapsids and some small Mesozoic mammals.

King Kong:
The original King Kong (1933) and its sequel The Son of Kong have Tyrannosaurus, Brontosaurus, Stegosaurus, Pteranodon, a serpentine plesiosaur, Styracosaurus, and a cave bear. Then there's the weird things like the dragon-like creature, thick-headed elasmosaur, Teratornis, and two-legged, carnivorous lizard among other oddities.
The 2005 remake, on the other hand, averts this by saying that various species had evolved differently over the ages on the island. The companion artbook/in-universe journal explains these all in fairly great detail, even if it's written as if by a 1930s group of scientists.

The Ultraman Neos episode, "Our Dino-Coaster", features the fossilized remains of three Stock Dinosaurs — a T-Rex, a Triceratops, and a Stegosaurus — getting infected by Dark Matter, and subsequently transforming into a hybrid dino-kaiju called King Dainas, with a stegosaurus' body, triceratops' horn and paws, and a T-Rex's head.

The Far Side uses T. rex, Stegosaurus note  and is in fact where the term "thagomizer", meaning the spiked tail of stegosaurus, comes from, Triceratops, Brontosaurusnote  which had not been re-confirmed to be a valid genus at the time , non-specific "anatosaurs", pterodactyls, mammoths, and saber-toothed cats fairly regularly. Usually with cavemen to boot.

Primal Rage featured two Palette Swapped T. rexes named Diablo and Sauron and a dromeosaur named Talon, who was actually depicted with feathers. Armadon and Vertigo were both Mix-and-Match Critters, the former being a bipedal ceratopsian/ankylosaur/stegosaur hybrid while the latter was based of the more obscure Sellosaurus with a bit of cobra thrown in. The other two main characters, Blizzard and Chaos, on the other hand, were giant apes instead of dinosaurs.

Dinosaur! hosted by Christopher Reeves is one of the best known dinosaur documentaries of the 80s (as it was shown on CBS as a big event). Spectacular animation by Phil Tippet (who did on RoboCop's and Star Wars 's stop motion sequences among many others) really steal the show. The animation primarily focuses on a family of Hadrosaurs/Anatosaurus as they try to raise offspring. Aside from them, there are Tyrannosaurus rex, Apatosaurus and a pair of Deinonychus. Most of the footage comes from Tippet's earlier short film Prehistoric Beasts. It won an Emmy for Special Effects. And now Phil Tippet has put the original short up on his Youtube Acount: Go watch it!

Dino Run, being set in Cretaceous era, has plenty of those. The player character is a stock raptor, and the others are Ankylosaurus, Brontosaurus, Diplodocus, Pachylocephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Pteranodon, Stegosaurus, and Triceratops. The eggs of other Stock Dinosaurs, such as Spinosaurus or Iguanodon, can also be found.

The 2006 version of Doraemon: Nobita's Dinosaur featured Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, Spinosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Elasmosaurus, Ornithomimus (who have feathers including wings), Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Iguanodon, Quetzalcoatlus, and Maiasaura. They also averted this with Japanese plesiosaur Futubasaurus as the main Mesozoic animal of focus, as well as a herd of Alamosaurus, a flock of Baptornis, and the small mammal Alphadon (which freaks out Doraemon due to its mouse-like appearance).

People in Heroes-related literature and discussion often insist on calling the animal Hiro is fighting in Isaac's painting a T. rex", when it is actually a Carnotaurus. A Carnotaurus has a bulldog snout, horns, warts, and three prominent fingers. The T. rex had two (not counting the vestigial one).

Walt Disney Presents episode "Mars and Beyond" features a segment about "Possible Martian Life" and compares it to how life evolved on Earth. Prehistoric life that is identifiable includes many stock animals — Dimetrodon is one of the synapsids. Dinosaurs include Plateosaurus, Stegosaurus, Allosaurus, Brontosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus and Archaeopteryx. Other reptiles include Rhamphorhynchus and Pteranodon. Mammals Smilodon, glyptodonts, ground sloths and mammoths, before jumping to modern animals. These animals were presented as static images moving along a static background.

Saurian: Played with. On one hand, since it takes place in the famous and well-studied Hell Creek Formation, we have the obligatory Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops as playable dinosaurs. We also have Ankylosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Edmontosaurus (referred to as "Anatosaurus" by the devs), and the non-dinosaurs Quetzalcoatlus and Mosasaurus. On the other hand, there are plenty of more obscure genera such as Dakotaraptor, Acheroraptor, and Anzu, a lot of them due to being recently discovered — in some cases while the game was in production. Also, the Triceratops species featured is T. prorsus instead of the more popular T. horridus, and the Quetzalcoatlus is an unidentified but distinct species rather than the larger and more popular Q. northropi.

Things were better in Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger, which was adapted into Power Rangers Dino Thunder. The main characters did have powers stemming from the overused stock Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pteranodon, and Brachiosaurus; but eventually also got assistance from Stegosaurus, Dimetrodon, Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, and Ankylosaurus zords; as well as Velociraptors as steeds. The Red Ranger also got a Styracosaurus-themed Next Tier Power-Up and corresponding zord. The Sixth Ranger was an aversion, since his animal was a Tupuxuara, an obscure pterosaur with a large head crest. Neither show really identified the Tupuxuara, though, and Dino Thunder also failed to correctly name the Styracosaurus. In addition, Abaranger had an appearance by evil Carnotaurus and Chasmosaurus zords, but these hardly showed up in Dino Thunder.

Fifteen Minds: The dino from Blue Moon Blossom is a cutesy long-necked sauropod with some plesiosaur characteristics whose legs and tail are never shown, and also the only non-avian dinosaur depicted in the story. They can also apparently swim and dive without the scuba gear that the bunny needs, and is perfectly okay walking through snow, which may double as early hints that the dino isn't quite normal or all they seem to be.

Planet of the Dinosaurs averts it pretty well. Sure, it has Brontosaurus, Allosaurus, Stegosaurus and a Tyrannosaurus that acts like a Horror Film Slasher to the stranded astronauts. It also has lesser known dinosaurs such as Polacanthus, Coelophysis, Dromiceiomimus and a Centrosaurus that's Immune to Lasers! It's a pretty bad film, but the FX are awesome.

For the record, in Dino Squad, a Velociraptor is the villain and another is on the protagonists' side. The teens' dino forms are Tyrannosaurus, Stegosaurus, Spinosaurus, Styracosaurus, and Pteranodon. Or so the official Web site says, but they've gotten species wrong at least once, reportedly. Just saying.

Jurassic World plays this trope straight with the return of Tyrannosaurus rex, Velociraptor and the flying reptile Pteranodon as major players. Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Gallimimus, Pachycephalosaurus and a holographic Dilophosaurus return as cameos. This is also the film debut of Apatosaurus (which was present in the book), flying reptile Dimorphodon and the marine lizard Mosasaurus (both of which were present in video game adaptations). The website lists Edmontosaurus and Baryonyx but neither of them show up onscreen. Subverted with the inclusion of Metriacanthosaurus, Microceratus, and Suchomimus on the park's website, though they didn't make it into the actual film either. A Spinosaurus skeleton can be seen in Jurassic World's Main Street, before being destroyed during the T. rex's rampage. The dinosaur antagonist, Indominus rex, is made up of several Stock Dinosaurs, namely T. rex, Velociraptor, Giganotosaurus, Carnotaurus, and Therizinosaurus, but it also contains Seldom-Seen Species such as Rugops and Majungasaurus.

Then in Engine Sentai Go-onger, the three final train-themed Engines (a mastodon, a Tyrannosaurus, and a Triceratops) originally arrived in the dimension known as the Human World (Earth) when it was originally the Dino World (despite the mastodon not being a dinosaur). In Power Rangers RPM they are merely known as the "Paleozord(s)" and have no historical setting, instead being modern man-made vehicles.

Manly Guys Doing Manly Things have Jet's quintet of velociraptors. They're portrayed as colorful, fully feathered fat birds (or as Jones put it, toothy roosters) as opposed to the scaly reptilitan portrayals often used.

In The Good Dinosaur, all named dinosaur characters belong to the well-known genera: Arlo and his family are Apatosaurus, Forrest Woodbrush is a Styracosaurus, the cattle rustlers are Velociraptor, and the cattle rancher family are Tyrannosaurus rex. Parasaurolophus make cameo appearances in the opening, and the tie-in toy line features Stegosaurus, Triceratops, and Ankylosaurus (which were planned to appear in the movie, but were cut out during the revision). The pterosaurs on the other hand avert this, being based on obscure genera such as Guidraco and Caulkicephalus. Deleted scenes also include the temporally misplaced Non-Dinosaur Dimetrodon, but one possessing mammalian traits like fur and visible ears and serving as the setting's analog to wolves or coyotes.

Dino D-Day subverts the trope by having (of a total seven dino classes) only two "stock" dinos: Velociraptor and Tyrannosaurus rex. The other five are the Dilophosaurus, Desmatosuchus, Stygimoloch, Protoceratops, and Styracosaurus.

Asura's Wrath: Gohma Strikers seem like Stock Brachiosaurus at first due to their shape, but this is actually a subversion: they are actually creatures with the body of a turtle and the head of a king cobra, but it invokes the look of a stock sauropod, thus the subversion.

Several zones in World of Warcraft include stock dinosaur Expies:
Trolls use raptors as their default mount, and one of the beginner pets for troll hunters is a raptor.
Most prominent is Un'Goro Crater, which includes T. rex, raptors, Stegosaurus, and pterodactyls (and Dimetrodon).
Mists of Pandaria introduces some new varieties of stock dinosaur Expys, including direhorns (Triceratops), Compy (Compsognathus), and a new pterodactyl model.

Star Fox Adventures had six stock "dinosaur" tribes: Triceratops, Tyrannosaurusnote strangely enough with an Allosaurus for a leader - for whatever reason, Apatosaurus, Pteranodon with a really long tail, Woolly Mammoth (sigh...), and humanoid mutants. However, they avert this with a nodosaur tribe.

The eighth generation Fossil Pokémon are a mixed bag (literally). The "Draco-" and "-zolt" halves appear to be based on famous stock dinosaurs, a stegosaur and raptor respectively, while the "-vish" and "Arcto-" halves are based on lesser stock prehistoric sea creatures, a Dunkleosteus and plesiosaurnote While not stated in other translations, the original Japanese version explicitly calls the "Arcto-" fossil a plesiosaur. respectively.
There's also the Dreepy line, which aren't Fossil Pokémon, but clearly based on the rare stock amphibian Diplocaulus and explicitly stated to have survived from prehistoric times (by becoming ghosts).

The first season of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, adapted from Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger, had "Dinozords", of which only three were actual dinosaurs — Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, and later on a Brachiosaurus named Brachion/Titanus. The others were a mastodon, a "sabertooth tiger", a Pteranodon (named so in Zyuranger, but called "Pterodactyl" in the American version), and a Godzilla-like "dragon".

Dinosaur deliberately averted this trope in several ways:
By avoiding all the four most classic "Great Stock dinosaurs" in favor of relatives. Brachiosaurus instead of Brontosaurus, Styracosaurus instead of Triceratops and Ankylosaurus rather than Stegosaurus are examples; the notable avoidance of T. rex for Carnotaurus makes the most cited case.
Having some Semi-Stock, Rare-Stock and Non-Stock creatures: the hornless ceratopsian Pachyrhinosaurus, the small bonehead "Stygimoloch" (instead of the prototypical Pachycephalosaurus), egg-stealing Oviraptor instead of the classic ornithomimids, and Microceratops and Talarurus, as well as the toothed bird Ichthyornis, the giant amphibian Koolasuchus and a flying, chameleon-like Longisquama (one of the few meddled animals).
Showing two "great stock" animals in a non-traditional way: dromeosaurs here have the correct Velociraptor shape, not the wrong Jurassic Park one, and the flying reptile carrying Aladar's egg is the obscure Pteranodon sternbergi instead of the universally-known Pteranodon longiceps. Again toothless.
Having as the lead character Iguanodon. The film has the merit to have done justice for the first time to one of the most important dinosaurs in paleontology.

The Adventures of Dr. McNinja features Paeleontologist Raptor Banditos, one of whom becomes his sidekick. It's also worth noting that when the author was e-mailed about a Velociraptor being more like a "Deinonychus, or a Utahraptor''", he lampshaded it, responding "I just want to let you know that all that real life dinosaur stuff is crazy confusing in my brain, and I'm just going by the Jurassic Park version."

Animal Armageddon (2009) focused on several mass extinctions across the world. Animals on display include many non-stock animals, as the first focus on times before dinosaurs had evolved. As such, the number of non-stock animals outnumbers the stock in many of the episodes. Stock animals featured include trilobites, eurypterids, Dunkleosteus, Eusthenopteron & Ichthyostega, hadrosaurs, ammonites, mosasaurs, titanosaurs, Protoceratops, Quetzalcoatlus, Triceratops, Troodon, Tyrannosaurus, Velociraptor, and woolly mammoths.

Prehistoric (Insert City Here) (2010) averts it in a few minor cases of it by taking major metropolitan areas and exploring the fossils found in and around them.Some of the dinosaur footage is taken from Dinosaur Planet and When Dinosaurs Roamed America, but new footage was made for this series. New York has mastodons, short-faced bears (Arctodus), the giant beaver Castoroides, Archelon, ammonites, Coelophysis, Dilophosaurus, Postosuchus and eurypterids among others. Dallas, Texas features mammoths, "scimitar cats" (ancestors of Smilodon), mosasaurs, Cretoxyrhina, the sauropod Paluxysaurus and Dallasaurus (a basal mosasaur). Washington D.C. features Carcharocles megalodon, Amphicyon (a "bear dog"), ancient peccaries, Astrodon, Pteranodon and Utahraptor. Finally, Los Angeles features Elasmosaurus, Ice Age bison, straight-shelled ammonites, giant ground sloths, Smilodon, Parasaurolophus and another hadrosaur and a tyrannosaur.

The original Land of the Lost featured all sorts of stock dinosaurs, and gave them nicknames on top of it. Tyannosaurus, Allosaurus, Coelophysis, Triceratops, Apatosaurus (called Brontosaurus) and Pteranodon among them. They also had other monsters such as a Two-Headed Elasmosaur and a fire-breathing Dimetrodon. The 90s remake featured Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Apatosaurus, a Mosasaur and Pteranodon. It also mentioned or showed remains of prehistoric mammals such as Dire Wolves and Smilodon. The movie features Dromeosaurids, Compsognathids, Pteranodon, Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus.

There is also a Friend called "Sabre Tiger" who is identified as a generic machairodont i.e. saber-toothed cat (some sources call her a Smilodon, though since she has a long tail, she is more likely a Machairodus).

The Lost World by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1912) was the first novel to show a prehistoric fauna instead of isolated creatures, in a remote place in South America. It's interesting because it reveals to us which animals were the most popular among people at the time; their "stock ensemble" was different to ours. T. rex had been described only 7 years before, while Allosaurus was already known for 35 years (discovered during the Bone Wars in 1877); thus, T. rex was only starting to outcompete Allosaurus in popularity as the "most fearsome meat-eating dino". The other two large meat-eaters known by paleontologists were the horned Ceratosaurus and the prototypical Megalosaurus (the popularity of both began to fall only in the 1970s, after the Dinosaur Renaissance). In the novel, human characters encounter an enormous theropod and argue about which of the four aforementioned genera it belongs (without succeeding to identify it). The other two dinosaurs are the still-popular Iguanodon and the Bone Wars offspring Stegosaurus, while there are no sauropods, no ceratopsians, and no hadrosaurs (this may be considered an aversion before the trope itself really got going, since these groups were already very well-known at the time); and obviously "raptors" are missing, since they were unknown at the time.
The same issue applies to the gigantic Pterosaurs encountered by our human heroes; the scientists of the group argue about which genus it is, and concluded that it may be either Dimorphodon or Pterodactylus (this may reveal that Pteranodon was not the iconic flying reptile yet, or maybe we're coping with another proto-aversion). Marine reptile were the same chosen by Jules Verne: Ichthyosaurus and Plesiosaurus (and not Elasmosaurus) Conan Doyle seems also to avert the trope (at least to modern eyes) about post-dinosaurian critters: we haven't any sabertooth or mastodon/mammoth, substituted by Toxodon, Glyptodont, the Terror Bird Phorusrhacos (all South American) and the "Irish Elk" Megaloceros. Some of them are not named due to Unreliable Narrator, but are pretty obvious to someone who knows.

The second novel The Lost World has a similar approach to the former: many Great Stock dinosaurs, some Semi Stock and much more Rare Stocks and Non Stocks. The most notable of the latter is perhaps Carnotaurus: this is the very first time that this horned predator has ever appeared in a successful pop work, and became a real stock after its second important portrait in Disney's Dinosaur, possibly substituting the "out-fashioned" Ceratosaurus (however the third JP film decided to be traditional and showed the old Ceratosaur and not Carnotaurs).

The Land That Time Forgot has lots of Stock Dinosaurs, but more often averts it...through Special Effect Failure. Stock include Allosaurus, Diplodocus, Ceratosaurus, Triceratops, Rhamphorhynchus, Ceratosaurus, Plesiosaurus, a "Giant Crocodile" (visually more of a mosasaur) and Styracosaurus that apparently all think humans are VERY tasty or just don't like them. The film also features the nodosaur Polacanthus. Oddly, despite the enlargement of them as well as the shortened neck, the Pterodactyls in the film are pretty accurate—they don't even use their claws to snatch people up, using their jaws instead. Too bad their wings and bodies are absolutely stiff in flight!

The otherwise typical 80s animated series Dinosaucers took a unique approach to this; each hero was a different type of stock dinosaur, with an Evil Counterpart of a different, roughly comparable species. The Hero was an Allosaurus, the Big Bad was a Tyrannosaurus rex, and so on.

In Seton Academy: Join the Pack!, the teachers at the school are Mesozoic reptiles, most of which are Stock Dinosaurs: Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, Pteranodon, Iguanodon, Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Spinosaurus, and Deinonychus. However, the token sauropod is the non-stock (and Brachiosaurus-like) Alamosaurus and the token pachycephalosaur is Stygimolochnote unless if you go by the hypothesis that Stygimoloch is just a juvenile Pachycephalosaurus.

Exalted:
Tyrant lizards are Exalted's version of Tyrannosaurus rex', while claw striders are standard featherless raptors.
Ox-dragons, massive reptilian herbivores with two long horns on their brows, a shorter horn on their snout, a bony neck-frill and a strong beak, are clearly inspired by Triceratops.
Siege lizards, with their stupidity, spiked tails and backs lined by plates of bone, are Exalted's version of Stegosaurus.
Among the ice age mammals, mammoths and saber-toothed tigers also show up as part of the Northern fauna. Giant ground sloths — know here as emperor sloths — are stated to live deep in the Eastern forests.

Warpath: Jurassic Park featured the usual platoon of stock dinosaurs (including a "Megaraptor" depicted as an up-scaled Velociraptor in the style of the franchise, making its depiction a veritable trainwreck of scientific inaccuracy), but also featured some that both at the time and since have been little-seen. Examples of the less commonly depicted dinosaurs in the game include Suchomimus tenerensis, Acrocanthosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus, Stygimoloch and Cryolophosaurus.

Pathfinder's Bestiary has stats for Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, Brachiosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Stegosaurus, Deinonychus, Pteranodon, and Elasmosaurus. The later bestiaries fill out most of the other Stock Dinos and add Seldom-Seen Species like Therizinosaurus, Amargasaurus, Kentrosaurus, and Ceratosaurus. Additionally, Cenozoic creatures are usually statted up as under "Megafauna" (like Glyptodon, Megatherium, and Megaloceros) or as Dire Beasts (cave bears are dire bears, sabertooth cats are dire tigers, and Megalodon is the dire shark, etc.).

Dungeons & Dragons: The "Dinosaur" entry in any Monster Manual has these. Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops are included in virtually every edition, but many of the others listed above get included, such as Deinonychus, plesiosaurs, Pteranodon, and Ankylosaurus. Supplements may include any Stock Dinos that were left out of the MM, as well as a few Seldom-Seen Species. Additionally, stats for Cenozoic fauna like mammoths, sabertooth cats, cave bears, dire wolves, terror birds (as "axe beaks"), and Megalodon exist in most editions.

1925's The Lost World also started the trend, but subverted it as well. The main big predator named is Allosaurus, though Tyrannosaurus appears for a couple scenes. Other dinosaurs include Trachodon (now Edmontosaurus), Brontosaurus, Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Pteranodon. Then it includes the now discredited genus Agathaumas, which has an iconic battle with Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus.

Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger and Power Rangers Dino Charge go back to a full dino theme, with Tyrannosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Velociraptor, Triceratops, and Pteranodon as the main Rangers' dinos; and Ankylosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Plesiosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Spinosaurus for secondary Rangers and mecha. Beyond that, there are about a dozen more different powerups, some of which are represented by non-stock dinos: Deinonychus, Deinosuchus, Kentrosaurus, Styracosaurus, Allosaurus, Seismosaurus, Oviraptor, Iguanodon, Tupandactylus, Ammonite, Archelon, Fukuiraptor, and Futabasaurus. Dino Charge doesn't identify any of the power-up species, though Deinosuchus, Oviraptor, Ammonite, and Archelon got some toy-only zord designs with colours matching their associated charger. It also does some reclassification of the Rangers' dinos, naming the Pteranodon as a Pterodactyl and the Brachiosaurus as a Titanosaur; both likely nods to Mighty Morphin'.

The "Rite of Spring" sequence in Fantasia may be one of the Trope Makers here. It shows off a random cross-section of prehistoric life in the space of a few minutes. It includes many ancient forms of life not normally committed to film (Trilobites, ancient fish, etc), but lots of stock animals too. Prehistoric animals include:
Dinosaurs: Plateosaurus, Brontosaurus, Diplodocus, Tyrannosaurus rex, Ceratosaurus, Troodon, Struthiomimus, Hypsilophodon, Archaeopteryx, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Brachiosaurus, Psittacosaurus, Protoceratops, Anchisaurus, Ankylosaurus, Chasmosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Anatosaurus, Corythosaurus, Kritosaurus are among the dinosaurs (as none is named, some are hard to identify correctly even for the dino-fandom).
Non-dinosaurs: Trilobites, Ammonites, Belemnites, Acanthodes, Eusthenopteron, Nothosaurus, Dimetrodon, Kannemeyeria, Placochelys, Tylosaurus, Elasmosaurus, Pteranodon (toothless), Hallopus, and Dimorphodon. There are also a lot of modern-day creatures, many of them are water invertebrates used to represent Life's first evolutionary steps.
25 years later, the Disney Imagineers created a Primeval World diorama for the 1964-1965 New York World's Fair, with many of the individual scenes apparently inspired by Fantasia. This diorama, which is currently installed at Disneyland in California, is a slight improvement on the film — the first scene shows dimetrodons in a Coal Age forest of giant horsetails (and Meganeura giant dragonflies, thereby combing the Carboniferous and the Permian), and then moves to a Jurassic swamp with some generic sauropods, followed by scenes featuring Pteranodon, Triceratops, and Struthiomimus (all Cretaceous). So far, so good; the sauropods look ridiculous and should not be munching water weeds in a swamp, but that can be put down to a combination of 1960s paleontological ignorance and artistic license. But then the final scene depicts a Stegosaurus battling some large theropod beside a violent lava flow. If the theropod is supposed to be a T. rex, as the narrator usually states, why does it have three fingers per hand, and what is the stego doing in the Cretaceous? You could ignore the narrator and assume that the setting has reverted back to the Jurassic for some reason, and the stego is fighting an Allosaurus... but that doesn't explain why stego has five tail spikes. Sigh. (Also, lava is really more of a Cretaceous thing.)
Word of God states that the creature is a Tyrannosaurus, and it has three fingers because Walt Disney thought it looks better (specifically scarier) that way. When discovered, people actually did use to think T. rex had three fingers, which might also have influenced Disney. We now know this was sorta true, as it's been discovered that Tyrannosaurus did have three fingers, but the third was vestigial and would not have been visible on the animal's hand.

LEGO has examples aplenty:
The dinosaur-subtheme of Adventurers had adult and hatchling Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Stegosaurus and the kind of "Pteranodon" that's nowadays known as Geosternbergia. There were no raptors, unfortunately, but a dead one did appear in an image in the building manuals, which had a section dedicated to dino science.
Dinosaurs, a line featuring four basic, giant-sized action figures which could be rebuilt into other stock dinos or even Seldom-Seen Species. These were:
Tyrannosaurus — Spinosaurus, Parasaurolophus and Ouranosaurus
Styracosaurus — Triceratops, Centrosaurus and Camarasaurus
Brachiosaurus — Diplodocus, Plateosaurus and Plesiosaurus
Mosasaurus — Postosuchus, Dimetrodon and Iguanodon
There were also promo sets of prehistoric babies sold in polybags: Iguanodon, Brachiosaurus, Ankylosaurus and Dimetrodon
LEGO Studios had two sets dedicated to Jurassic Park III, and these had Spinosaurus (just a recolor of the original Dinosaurs model), as well as a laughable-looking block-Pteranodon and block-raptors (may be justified in that they were meant to represent fake dinos on a movie set).
''Dino 2010'' and its US-counterpart ''Dino Attack'' had "mutant lizards", a "raptor", a clear Ptero Soarer and a "T-Rex". These were all supposed to be mutant freaks, so apart from the only even slightly recognizable dino of the bunch (T-Rex), it's impossible to deduce what species they might have originally been.
Dino, an action-oriented setline has Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pteranodon, some kind of raptor and a somewhat unexpected Coelophysis.

Journey to the Center of the Earth has had several adaptations into feature films.
1956: Features giant Dimetrodon
1976: This production from Spain features two mosasaurs that do battle, giant turtles, Dimetrodon, creatures resembling giant lizards and a King Kong knockoff (which actually was featured in a dream sequence in the original novel).
1998: A TV film has a predatory Iguanodon (lampshaded by the group's scientist) and Raptor People.
2008: This 3D film features only one dinosaur, a Giganotosaurus (although it looks more like a Tyrannosaurus with thumbs). In another scene, a flock of plesiosaurs appear in an Always a Bigger Fish-type situation.

Monsters Resurrected did whole segments on prehistoric animals in detail each episode. Largely averting stock animals: Titanis (a Phorusrhacid), Acrocanthosaurus, Amphicyon the Bear-Dog, Tylosaurus (a Mosasaur) and Megalania. Each animal was presented with animals it lived with and hunted, as well as discussing their extinctions. The Titanis episode featured Smilodon, an ancestral wolf (Canis edwardi), Hippidion (a North American horse) and a ground sloth. Spinosaurus has its ego further inflated as "Biggest Carnivore ever" taken to an insane degree and features Sarcosuchus, Carcharodontosaurus, the sauropod Paralititan, and the small theropod Rugops. Acrocanthosaurus features Paluxysaurus (a sauropod), Tenontosaurus (a large ornithopod), Deinonychus and the ankylosaur Sauropelta. Amphicyon features Daeodon (a largely carnivorous swine dubbed the "Terminator Pig"), Moropus (a Chalicothere), Merychippus (a primitive horse), Ramoceros (a pronghorn), and Epicyon (a more true canid). Tylosaurus featured Cretoxyrhina, Dolichorhynchops (a short-necked, long billed Plesiosaur), Elasmosaurus, Xiphactinus and Dallasaurus (see below). Finally, Megalania featured Procoptodon (the largest kangaroo ever), Diprotodon (the largest marsupial ever—a giant wombat), Thylacoleo (the "Marsupial Lion") and humans.
While Spinosaurus is far from averting Stock Animals, the narration keeps insisting that it does.

The 2005 remake, on the other hand, averts this by saying that various species had evolved differently over the ages on the island. The companion artbook/in-universe journal explains these all in fairly great detail, even if it's written as if by a 1930s group of scientists.

Ice Age:
The series averts the trope about mammals: obviously woolly mammoths and smilodons are in the spotlight, but we can see many critters that resemble some unfamiliar prehistoric mammals (although not named, thus acting as Genius Bonus). And the two marine reptiles in the second movie seem Non-Stock as well, with one of them resembling fish-like sea crocodilomorphs.
Zig-zagged in Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Although some were recognizable such as the T. rex family, Brachiosaurus, an Ankylosaurus, Iguanodon, Pachycephalosaurus, a Triceratops family, and an Archaeopteryx, there were also lesser-known genera such as small stegosaurid Kentrosaurus, a pack of Troodon, a flock of Pterodactylus who were seen chasing after the Harpactognathus-mounted Buck and the possum brothers, ravenous wolfish Guanlong, and a white Baryonyx named Rudy - Buck's eternal enemy and threat to the T. rex family.

Kamen Rider Revice features the Tyrannosaurus rex as Revice's default power set, and he can also switch to Megalodon, Mammoth, Pterasaur, or Brachiosaur powers (alongside those of modern-day animals).

Super Mario Bros. only had few dinosaurs in its long run, most of them appearing in Super Mario World and its Dinosaur's Land and it mostly zigzags the trope. Reznors are obvious Triceratops (though fire-breathing) while the other dino-like creatures like the Rexes and the Blarggs are completely made-up. However the Dino-Rhinos/Torches, even if they breath fire too, seem to be based on the less common Protoceratops.
Yoshis and Birdos drew inspiration from the Theropod line but without any specific traits who could relate them to an existing species. Both of them had a subtle Anthropomorphic Shift over the years to make them stand more straight, which was lampshaded by Masahiro Sakurai during the development of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. note Yoshi had the same base model for years and suddenly changed in the fourth game to better fit his modern design.
There is also Dorrie, Super Mario 64's Stock Ness Monster who has some similarities with the Plesiosaur (like most Nessie expies). It's spiritual successor however, Plessie from Super Mario 3D World, is a grotesque cartoon character who shares more similiraties with Yoshi.
The adaptations of the games are less subtle to say the least, between the Super Mario World cartoon and its several 1 Million B.C. tropes and Anachronism Stew (the latter could be forgiven by the fact that the setting is a Lost World), and the infamous movie depicting dinosaurs (like the stock Triceratops and Diplodocus in the intro) looking like humans after millennia of evolution in an alternate dimension.
Super Mario Odyssey features two actual dinosaurs: Tyrannosaurus (which you can take control of) and Triceratops (only appearing as a giant skeleton crowning the Cascade Kingdom).

The Land Before Time: The original movie (1988) plays this trope straight with a Five-Man Band made of four dinosaurs and one pterosaur; three of the dinos are Great Stock (Brontosaurus, Triceratops, and Stegosaurus, with the sauropod obviously being the lead character), while the flying reptile is the iconic Pteranodon (also toothless). The villain is a Tyrannosaurus. We can also see a brief cameo of the stock mammal-like reptile Dimetrodon... with a snake-like tongue. However, this film makes some aversions as well: the forth Five-Man Band dinosaur is the relatively obscure Saurolophus, although she's officially labeled Parasaurolophus, has some resemblance with Edmontosaurus, and her parents brood the eggs like Maiasaura; thus it may better qualified as a Mix-and-Match Critter duckbill (true Parasaurolophus as well as a skeleton appear, however). Rooter is an old-fashioned Scolosaurus, with two wrong spikes on the tip of its tail and very slow-moving like a turtle. This may be one of the first times that the bonehead Pachycephalosaurus appears in an animation movie, although portrayed as a fearsome predator trying to kill Cera with headbutts. We can also see an egg-robbing Struthiomimus, a feeding frenzy of Diplodocus, a generic ankylosaur, and some small bipedal dinos similar to Compsognathus or Hypsilophodon. And then some generic pterosaurs (one of which resembling Dimorphodon), several modern reptiles (lizards and turtles, one of them is snapping-like), a long-tailed frog, some arthropods (dragonflies, beetles, crickets and spiders), a little rodent-like mammal, and two unusual aquatic creatures at the beginning— one looks like a salamander, and the other is some sort of big toothy fish. The "raptor" is missing, chiefly because the film was made before Jurassic Park of 1993 (although there is a blink-and-you'll-miss-it glimpse of what might be a small dromaeosaur during the earthquake scene).
Curiously, the sequels have a friendly tyrannosaur and have featured popular (or fun to animate) recently-discovered animals in the cast as well. Also, the cartoon series has a feathered Oviraptor (Ruby), as well as a returning Chomper (the friendly Tyrannosaurus) joining the main cast.
Littlefoot has previously been identified as a "Brontosaurus" and a "Bracheosaurus" (which is not only the wrong species, but the wrong spelling) on video and DVD releases. It seems this is one time where Word of God deliberately didn't know or didn't care.

Nova ran several documentaries on Dinosaurs including:
"The Hot Blooded Dinosaurs" (1977) has mentioned and displayed Brontosaurus, Stegosaurus, Dimetrodon, Deinonychus and Archaeopteryx.
"The Asteroid and the Dinosaur" has a small, simply-animated sequence with Diplodocus and Tyrannosaurus.
"The Hunt for Chinese Dinosaurs" (1991) shows several dinosaurs from China and from Canada. The first includes Protoceratops. North American setting focuses mainly on Troodon (and the Dinosauroid theory) and Tyrannosaurus rex. We can see animated Troodon as well. Stop-motion animation and hand drawn animation are well implemented. It's also to note the Lampshade Hanging about the Dinosaurs Are Dragons thing during the entire program. Originally it was it's own separate 90 minute documentary, but was shortened for NOVA, cutting some ancillary bits of varied animation including sand animation and some stop motion sequences.
"Case of the Flying Dinosaur" focuses on the connection between Dinosaurs and Birds (still debated heavily at the time). Archaeopteryx, Pterosaurs, and Deinonychus prominently featured.
"T. Rex, Exposed" — guess who this is about?
"The Real Jurassic Park" (1993) was made to dual-promote science and the movie. See that film for the stock in use.
"Dinosaurs of the Gobi" (1994) focuses more on prehistoric small mammals from the late cretaceous of the Gobi. Protoceratops and Velociraptor are about the only ones mentioned.
"The Curse of T. Rex" (1997), about a legal battle over a Tyrannosaurus skeleton.

In Megamorphs #2, our heroes go back in time, morphing dinosaurs. Thanks to Tobias's (previously unmentioned) detailed knowledge of dinosaurs rivaling with that of a six year old's, they establish that they're in the late Cretaceous Era, and fight (among others) Spinosaurs. At the end of the book, Tobias says paleontologists believe Spinosaurs had died out by the mid-Cretaceous. "Who are you going to believe? Me, or a bunch of guys with old fossils?"
It does, however, ignore geography: Saltasaurus was from South America, Spinosaurus from Africa. In addition, Deinonychus and Kronosaurus were also from the Early Cretaceous, and the meteor impact is portrayed as happening in California, when it really took place in southeastern Mexico.

The Dino-Riders franchise had dinosaurs from virtually everywhere, plus the obligatory pterosaurs and Dimetrodon. A spinoff line of prehistoric mammals provided another example of this trope, with an entelodont (giant pig thing) alongside a giant ground sloth, sabertoothed cat, and woolly mammoth. Then again, this is a series that concerns the exploits of aliens waging war on prehistoric Earth with the help — voluntary in the case of the good guys, not so much in the case of the bad guys — of the animals. Rule of Cool heals many a wound.

Walking with Dinosaurs and its follow-up series feature every stock dinosaur listed above and just as many (or more) animals that were not heavily featured before. Inspired many to follow in its example.
The original WWD featured Stegosaurus, ammonites, Utahraptor, Pteranodon, unnamed pterosaurs and Tyrannosaurus among the great stock, Diplodocus, Allosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Rhamphorhynchus, Iguanodon, unnamed allosaurs, Anatotitan and Ankylosaurus among the semi-stock, and Coelophysis, cynodonts, Plateosaurus, Liopleurodon and Quetzalcoatlus among the rare stock.
Walking with Beasts featured Smilodon, woolly mammoths and neanderthals among the great stock, Gastornis, Paraceratherium, Phorusrhacos, Megatherium, Megaloceros and woolly rhinos among the semi-stock, and Andrewsarchus and Australopithecus among the rare stock.
Walking with Monsters featured trilobites among the great stock, Meganeura and Dimetrodon among the semi-stock, and sea scorpions, Arthropleura and Edaphosaurus among the rare stock.
The Ballad of Big Al had Apatosaurus and Stegosaurus among great stock, and Allosaurus, Brachiosaurus and Diplodocus among semi-stock.
Chased By Dinosaurs had Pteranodon and Velociraptor among the great stock, and Argentinosaurus, Sarcosuchus, Giganotosaurus and Protoceratops among the rare stock.
Sea Monsters had trilobites, pterosaurs, coelurosaurs, Megalodon, Tyrannosaurus and Pteranodon among the great stock, hadrosaurs, Ankylosaurus, Anatotitan and Elasmosaurus among the semi-stock, and sea scorpions, Dunkleosteus, Liopleurodon, mosasaurs, Archelon and giant mosasaurs among the rare stock.
Walking With Cavemen had neanderthals and mammoths among the great stock, Gigantopithecus and Megaloceros among the semi-stock, and Australopithecus among the rare stock.

Dyna Gear have your character, Roger, stranded in a planet where dinosaurs haven't gone extinct yet. Naturally, the dinos you encounter are of the stock variety, including low-level Raptors as mooks, various Pterosaurs, Stegosaurs and Ankylosaurs as Giant Mook enemies, and boss battles against a hostile T-Rex and a Triceratops. You do fight a Glyptodon (a tortoise-like prehistoric reptile) and a Therizinosaurus (a dino similar to the T-Rex) as bosses in two occasions though.

Sliders, being a show about parallel universes, had two episodes with dinosaurs in them. The first one had them in a wildlife preserve of Dinosaurs run by humans, the other which was a caveman and dinosaur fantasy world where the cavemen went extinct thanks to another group of Sliders escaping their world for that one. The first one referenced many dinosaurs (including Stegosaurus and Archeopteryx), but only an Allosaurus showed up. It also included an Evil Poacher. The later featured Parasaurolophus and Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The Elder Scrolls:
Throughout the series are Clannfear, a form of lesser Daedra with animalistic intelligence and the general appearance of raptors with ceratopsid frills and beaks. As Daedra, they are technically immortal beings who can manifest in any form they choose, and no reason is ever given for their appearance. As far as can be told, Nirn never had dinosaurs.
There are no dinosaurs in Skyrim, but plenty of Pleistocene fauna. You can encounter woolly mammoths, sabretoothed cats (called just sabrecats, for brevity) and cave bears.

When Dinosaurs Roamed America (2001) focuses on American Dinosaurs (as if they needed more representation). Some non-stock Triassic Reptiles and dinosaurs do make it in early on, however. Among the stock dinosaurs, there are Coelophysis, Dilophosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Allosaurus, Apatosaurus, Stegosaurus, pterosaurs, dromaeosaurs, coelurosaurs, T. rex, Triceratops, Anatotitan, Quetzalcoatlus and Ornithomimus.

While the Pokémon games do have stock dinosaurs (such as Aerodactyl = Pterosaur, Rhyperior = Ankylosaur/Theropod/Rhinoceros, etc.), there's also more obscure species/genera in there; Sceptile, for example, resembles the REAL Dilophosaurus.
The Pokémon actually revived from fossils generally avert this. Aerodactyl is mentioned above, Rampardos and Bastiodon are the stock pachycephalosaur and ceratopsian, and Archeops is an archaeopteryx, but Omastar is an ammonite, Kabutops is a horseshoe crab, Cradily is a sea pen, and Armaldo is, amazingly, an anomalocarid, and Carracosta could have been based on a number of prehistoric sea turtle such as Archelon.
The 6th-generation fossil Pokémon, however, are both based on stocks: Tyrunt and Tyrantrum are based on Tyrannosaurus rex, and Amaura and Aurorus are based on sauropods (though Tropius has covered this ground already).
Though Amaura and Aurorus are clearly based on Amargasaurus rather than Apatosaurus, since the fossil used to resurrect them is their signature "sail" vertebra spines.
Commendably, Tyrantrum is depicted with an impressive "mane" and pseudo-beard of feathers and Amaura/Aurorus come from polar regions, alluding to oft forgotten polar dinosaurs (although Amargasaurus is not known from polar regions itself).
The eighth generation Fossil Pokémon are a mixed bag (literally). The "Draco-" and "-zolt" halves appear to be based on famous stock dinosaurs, a stegosaur and raptor respectively, while the "-vish" and "Arcto-" halves are based on lesser stock prehistoric sea creatures, a Dunkleosteus and plesiosaurnote While not stated in other translations, the original Japanese version explicitly calls the "Arcto-" fossil a plesiosaur. respectively.
There's also the Dreepy line, which aren't Fossil Pokémon, but clearly based on the rare stock amphibian Diplocaulus and explicitly stated to have survived from prehistoric times (by becoming ghosts).

Czech artist Zdenek Burian was the European equivalent of Knight, or successor, since his most famous and influential works came only after the "Knight Era". His paintings have been reproduced and recreated countless of times in many, many books, and some of his classic setups (mountain-like Brachiosaurus at a lake, Iguanodon standing in a Godzilla-posenote Actually, it would be the other way around: Godzilla's design seems to have been partially based on Burian's Iguanodon reconstruction, Mosasaurus lunging out of the water to catch Pteranodon, as well as his incredibly famous rendition of an erect Tarbosaurus) and color choices (blue Archaeopteryx) have become memes of their own among paleo-artists.

Largely averted in Raptor Red, as one would expect from a book written by a Paleontologist. Limited to Deinonychus, Iguanodon and arguably Utahraptor. The other dinosaurs are much less familiar - Acrocanthosaurus (a big theropod possibly related to Allosaurus), Astrodon (a smallish by sauropod standards relative of Brachiosaurus), and the ankylosaur Gastonia.

Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, as a Jurassic Park simulator, includes stock species, but it actually ranks them according to the actual popularity in the real world (with an obvious Jurassic Park bias). Stock species include Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Velociraptor, Allosaurus, Spinosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus (along with Corythosaurus and Edmontosaurus) and Gallimimus; as well as the seldom-seen Styracosaurus, Dilophosaurus (it IS Jurassic Park, after all) and Ceratosaurus, but some choices are quite rare, such as Acrocanthosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus, Albertosaurus, Ouranosaurus, Camarasaurus, Torosaurus, Kentrosaurus, Homalocephale (for some reason MORE popular that Pachycephalosaurus) and Dryosaurus, whose popularity is so low that they may as well account for some expensive and prone to die ambient.
Examination of the game files show several Dummied Out species, and those include both stock and non-stock species: Deinonychus, Ornithomimus, Iguanodon, Apatosaurus and Diplodocus are the most striking ones, but there are also familiar faces such as Baryonyx, Maiasaura and Tenontosaurus, as well as really rare dinosaurs such as Alioramus, Yangchuanosaurus, Panoplosaurus, Wuerhosaurus and Thescelosaurus.

Dinosaur Revolution is more of a tribute to Dinosaurs in the model of Ricardo Delgado's Age of Reptiles. So it's not really a documentary aside from the talking heads, but stories about dinosaurs. Still fun, but Executive Meddling forced it into a mold it was not ready to fill (it was planned as 6 episodes, but was cut to 4 — and the talking heads were for an after action followup). Because of this, some creatures are modeled after other species due to the changes. It features a healthy mix of stock and non-stock dinosaurs.

Paleoworld (1994-1997) ran for 50 episodes and thus got to focus on many non-stock dinosaurs. It covered things from obscure island giant rat species to T. rex. It used some old animatronics and painting close ups to show its various prehistoric animals.
The show was repackaged from 1998 to 1999 as Bonehead Detectives of the Paleoworld for a younger market.

This has happened several times in the history of Super Sentai and Power Rangers.
The first season of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, adapted from Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger, had "Dinozords", of which only three were actual dinosaurs — Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, and later on a Brachiosaurus named Brachion/Titanus. The others were a mastodon, a "sabertooth tiger", a Pteranodon (named so in Zyuranger, but called "Pterodactyl" in the American version), and a Godzilla-like "dragon".
Things were better in Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger, which was adapted into Power Rangers Dino Thunder. The main characters did have powers stemming from the overused stock Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pteranodon, and Brachiosaurus; but eventually also got assistance from Stegosaurus, Dimetrodon, Pachycephalosaurus, Parasaurolophus, and Ankylosaurus zords; as well as Velociraptors as steeds. The Red Ranger also got a Styracosaurus-themed Next Tier Power-Up and corresponding zord. The Sixth Ranger was an aversion, since his animal was a Tupuxuara, an obscure pterosaur with a large head crest. Neither show really identified the Tupuxuara, though, and Dino Thunder also failed to correctly name the Styracosaurus. In addition, Abaranger had an appearance by evil Carnotaurus and Chasmosaurus zords, but these hardly showed up in Dino Thunder.
Then in Engine Sentai Go-onger, the three final train-themed Engines (a mastodon, a Tyrannosaurus, and a Triceratops) originally arrived in the dimension known as the Human World (Earth) when it was originally the Dino World (despite the mastodon not being a dinosaur). In Power Rangers RPM they are merely known as the "Paleozord(s)" and have no historical setting, instead being modern man-made vehicles.
Samurai Sentai Shinkenger features the Kyoryu Origami (Kyoryu = Dinosaur) which is an undefined Sauropod with pointy teeth (which is believed to be the Vulcanodon). Power Rangers Samurai tried to pass it off as a shark instead.
Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger and Power Rangers Dino Charge go back to a full dino theme, with Tyrannosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Velociraptor, Triceratops, and Pteranodon as the main Rangers' dinos; and Ankylosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Plesiosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Spinosaurus for secondary Rangers and mecha. Beyond that, there are about a dozen more different powerups, some of which are represented by non-stock dinos: Deinonychus, Deinosuchus, Kentrosaurus, Styracosaurus, Allosaurus, Seismosaurus, Oviraptor, Iguanodon, Tupandactylus, Ammonite, Archelon, Fukuiraptor, and Futabasaurus. Dino Charge doesn't identify any of the power-up species, though Deinosuchus, Oviraptor, Ammonite, and Archelon got some toy-only zord designs with colours matching their associated charger. It also does some reclassification of the Rangers' dinos, naming the Pteranodon as a Pterodactyl and the Brachiosaurus as a Titanosaur; both likely nods to Mighty Morphin'.
Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger and Power Rangers Dino Fury have the usual Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, and Ankylosaurus for the Red, Blue, and Pink Rangers. In Ryusoulger, Black has a "Needlesaurus" (a fictional relative of Stegosaurus) and Green has a saber-toothed "Tigersaurus" (a reptilian version of a Smilodon); while Dino Fury designates them as an actual Stegosaurus and "Saber-Toothed Tiger". Averted by the Sixth Ranger, whose dinosaur is a Mosasaurus, which is growing in popularity but not yet very common. The team also gets mecha and major powerups based on other well-known creatures: Dimetrodon, Spinosaurus, Velociraptor, Pachycephalosaurus, and Pteranodon. Like Kyoryuger/Dino Charge there are an assortment of secondary powerups, but in both shows they're named and themed after the power they provide and not tied to any specific species.

Zig-zagged in Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Although some were recognizable such as the T. rex family, Brachiosaurus, an Ankylosaurus, Iguanodon, Pachycephalosaurus, a Triceratops family, and an Archaeopteryx, there were also lesser-known genera such as small stegosaurid Kentrosaurus, a pack of Troodon, a flock of Pterodactylus who were seen chasing after the Harpactognathus-mounted Buck and the possum brothers, ravenous wolfish Guanlong, and a white Baryonyx named Rudy - Buck's eternal enemy and threat to the T. rex family.

You Are Umasou has Tyrannosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Maiasaura, and Elasmosaurus making up the main cast, and Triceratops, Parasaurolophus, generic dromaeosaurs and ornithomimids, Giganotosaurus, Troodon, Protoceratops, Pteranodon, and a Tylosaurus appear as minor roles. What appears to be a spinosaur corpse appears in the eruption scene. However, they managed to avert this with titanosaurs as the token sauropods (taking place in the Cretaceous and all), Ornithocheirus, Avisaurus, and a Chilantaisaurus (depicted with bull horns for some reason). There are also other creatures, which all seem to be made-up.

The Lizardmen of Warhammer don't use any real-life dinosaur species in their armies, but they do have dinosaur-like monsters that are all based on all the usual Stock Dinosaurs. Carnosaurs are based on T. rex, cold ones (also used by the dark elves) are scaly raptors, stegadons are a mix of a Triceratops and a Stegosaurus, terradons are Hollywood-style pterosaurs, bastiladons look like Ankylosaurus, and troglodons look like a cave-adapted Spinosaurus. Additionally, mammoths are often utilized as War Elephants by the Warriors of Chaos and the tuskcats and rhinoxen used by the Ogre Kingdoms resemble sabertooth cats and woolly rhinos.

Palaeontologist Gregory Paul depicted many theropods in black-and-white in his successful book Predatory Dinosaurs of the World; these drawings was a major font of inspiration for Michael Crichton and his Jurassic Park.

The adaptations of the games are less subtle to say the least, between the Super Mario World cartoon and its several 1 Million B.C. tropes and Anachronism Stew (the latter could be forgiven by the fact that the setting is a Lost World), and the infamous movie depicting dinosaurs (like the stock Triceratops and Diplodocus in the intro) looking like humans after millennia of evolution in an alternate dimension.

Averted in Jabberwocky. Most of the Funny Animal characters are more obscure dinosaurs. Fantastic Racism comes up not only against the human characters, but among the various species (one main character is an oviraptor, whose people faced persecution due to scientific theories that were popular before Science Marches On).

The Lost World: Jurassic Park features all the dinosaurs from the first movie except Dilophosaurus (probably with the purpose not to continue with such an incorrectly-portrayed animal) and Brachiosaurus, and also added other animals: two Great Stocks (Stegosaurus and Pteranodon), two Semi-Stocks (Pachycephalosaurus and Compsognathus) and one Rare-Stock (the Diplodocus-like sauropod is officially Mamenchisaurus, but it’s not named and make only a brief cameo).

My Girlfriend is a T-Rex features dinosaur versions of kemonomimi and predictably, the major players are Stock Dinosaurs—Churio is the titular Tyrannosaurus rex, Trica is a (feathered) Velociraptor, Kram is an Ankylosaurus and Nowol is the ptoken Pteranodon.

Fossil Fighters uses many of the stock favorites as rare and special characters, while the game's Com Mons (and some of the more powerful types) tend to be more obscure dinos. Although your "starter" in the first game is always an Altispinax, you get to answer a series of questions at the beginning in order to pick a stock dinosaur that is "special" to you (such as Triceratops, Maiasaura, Parasaurolophus, etc).

However, exceptions occurred, especially in the aforementioned Beast Wars: Dinobot (an inaccurate Velociraptor, way before one got added to the Dinobots proper), Hardhead (Pachycephalosaurus, whose toy was retooled from Dinobot's... so it was a weird Pachycephalosaurus), Bazooka (Ankylosaurus), Archadis (Archaeopteryx) and Magmatron (who had three beast modes: Giganotosaurus, Elasmosaurus and Quetzalcoatlus). Nearly all of these characters were exclusive to the Japanese fiction, although the toys got released in the US (where Magmatron's three beast modes were misidentified horribly. How does a Giganotosaurus get confused with a raptor, anyway?).

Quetzalcoatlus (severely incorrect), Albertosaurus, Gorgosaurus (incorrectly living north of the Arctic Circle), Pachyrhinosaurus, Edmontonia (misnamed "Ankylosaurus" despite visibly lacking the tail club) and the mosasaur Prognathodon (incorrectly living in freshwater) show up as well.

Gantz has a story arc with aliens hiding in a museum disguised as dinosaur replicas. The dinos include T. rex, Triceratops, Jurassic Park sized but feathered raptors and "Brontosaur" type herbivores. The T. rex shoots fireballs from its mouth and the Triceratops can walk upright but since they are all actually aliens its justified.

One Million Years B.C. has several stock dinosaurs: Ceratosaurus, Triceratops, Allosaurus, Brontosaurus, Pteranodon AND Rhamphorhynchus (oversized and short-tailed). Harryhausen also threw in a Giant Iguana and Giant Spider Homage to the original One Million BC which as nothing but Slurpasaurs. Awesomely, people thought that a giant turtle was used for the Archelon, blown up to massive proportions anyway, but that too was a stop motion model.

Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger and Power Rangers Dino Fury have the usual Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, and Ankylosaurus for the Red, Blue, and Pink Rangers. In Ryusoulger, Black has a "Needlesaurus" (a fictional relative of Stegosaurus) and Green has a saber-toothed "Tigersaurus" (a reptilian version of a Smilodon); while Dino Fury designates them as an actual Stegosaurus and "Saber-Toothed Tiger". Averted by the Sixth Ranger, whose dinosaur is a Mosasaurus, which is growing in popularity but not yet very common. The team also gets mecha and major powerups based on other well-known creatures: Dimetrodon, Spinosaurus, Velociraptor, Pachycephalosaurus, and Pteranodon. Like Kyoryuger/Dino Charge there are an assortment of secondary powerups, but in both shows they're named and themed after the power they provide and not tied to any specific species.

Terra Nova has featured very few, most notably the Brachiosaurs and the Ankylosaurus. Their large carnivore role is filled by Carnotaurus rather than T. rex and their raptors come from two different fictional species. A spinosaur (nicknamed Empirosaur) appeared in one episode.

The Trench and Hell's Aquarium also makes use of stock marine reptiles, inasmuch as there are stock marine reptiles. (Kronosaurus, Liopleurodon, Elasmosaurus).

Primeval actually manages to play this trope straight while averting it at the same time; While almost all of the prehistoric creatures to appear are more obscure than those seen in most media, the only actual dinosaurs to appear are the ever-popular raptors.
Also the dodos, Hesperornis, and terror birds, if you're a cladist...
The third season broke the trend, featuring three dinosaurs: a Giganotosaurus, a Velociraptor (which is accurately sized for once), and a Dracorex (though a great deal of liberty was taken with its design, giving it an Amargasaurus spine and a crapload of spikes.)
Actually the Velociraptor wasn't quite "accurately sized". It was a baby. Meaning we still didn't get a "proper-sized" Velociraptor. We never see an adult in the third season. Same thing happens with the Deinonychus, the only ones seen in the third season aren't fully grown. However we do see adult Deinonychus in the second season.
And now, the series has Spinosaurus in the 4th season and Tyrannosaurus in the 5th season.

Dinosaur Comics has three stock dinosaur appearing in each issue: Tyrannosaurus rex, a dromeosaurid and an ornithomimid. The last two are aversions if you count the genera: the dromeosaur is Utahraptor and the ostrich mimic dino is Dromiceiomimus (the least famous of the three North American ornithomimids).

Though not a dinosaur film, 10,000 BC features stock prehistoric mammals instead. Mammoths and (Giant) Smilodons, and a group of silly-looking Terror Birds in the Old World. According to interviews, they were put in so they could technically have dinosaurs in the movie —without having dinosaurs in the movie.

In Runaways, Gert has a pet Deinonychus named Old Lace. Actually, it's first referred to as a Velociraptor, than a Deinonychus. The animal it's actually based on are the "Velociraptors" from Jurassic Park, which actually means given its size that Old Lace is actually a Utahraptor. Old Lace is completely featherless - however, she's genetically engineered and actually from the future, so that could explain many of the inconsistencies.

The 6th-generation fossil Pokémon, however, are both based on stocks: Tyrunt and Tyrantrum are based on Tyrannosaurus rex, and Amaura and Aurorus are based on sauropods (though Tropius has covered this ground already).
Though Amaura and Aurorus are clearly based on Amargasaurus rather than Apatosaurus, since the fossil used to resurrect them is their signature "sail" vertebra spines.
Commendably, Tyrantrum is depicted with an impressive "mane" and pseudo-beard of feathers and Amaura/Aurorus come from polar regions, alluding to oft forgotten polar dinosaurs (although Amargasaurus is not known from polar regions itself).

Steggy from the Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers episode "Prehysterical Pet" is a space-traveling Stegosaurus that is usually smaller than a Chihuahua, but quite smart (although even in that state he voluntarily acts like a dog). It is Earth's food that causes both his body to grow and his brain to shrink, and he needs food from his (and the other late Jurassic dinos') homeworld to return to normal.

Granted they're mechanical, but Transformers invokes this with the Dinobots. We've got Grimlock (T. rex), Slag (Triceratops), Sludge (Brontosaurus/Apatosaurus), and Snarl (Stegosaurus). Swoop technically doesn't count since he is a Pteranodon. On the Decepticon side there was Trypticon, whose robot mode was a Godzilla-sized T. rex. Bonus points for actually looking like Godzilla.

There are certain Fighting Fantasy books which is set in lands where dinosaurs still exists, but they're usually hostile and attack the player characters on sight.
Portal of Evil has the titular portal leading to a world with a Cretaceous-era inspired setting, and dinosaurs are reoccurring encounters, including a triceratops guarding its young, an elasmosaurus that ambushes you in a lake, spinosauruses being used as steed, and a heavily armoured ankylosaurus. The most powerful of all being a T. Rex kept in the Big Bad's lair as an Attack Animal, which you might end up being Fed to the Beast.
Battleblade Warrior have various stock dinosaurs, such as raptors, pterodactyls and styracosaurus, being trained by the villainous Lizard Men empire to be used as steeds. There's also a situation where players can be caught between a T. Rex and a Triceratops battling each other.
Robot Commando uses this as it's very premise; being set in a planet where dinosaurs exist, and your occupation being a pilot of giant robots who herds dinosaurs. The iconic T-Rex is featured right in the front cover.
