Cephalosaur

Cephalosaurs were a type of creature with tentacle-like arms that could be found on the astronomical object Regnio III. During his youth, the Evereni Marchion Ro hunted the creatures while on Regnio III. In 228 BBY, while on a desert planet, Ro was reminded of the cephalosaurs he had hunted when he saw blue-green cacti that sprouted spindly bushes with long tentacle-like arms.
==Behind the scenes==
Cephalosaurs were mentioned in the 2024 novel The High Republic: Temptation of the Force, written by Tessa Gratton and published as part of the Star Wars: The High Republic multimedia project's Phase III. The word "cephalosaur" is a combination of "cephalo-," meaning head, and "-saur," used in the Anglicized taxonomic names of certain extinct real-world reptiles.
