Meaning 'ostritch mimic', Struthiomimus. was an Ornithomimid, closely related to Ornithomimus ('bird mimic') and Gallimimus ('chicken mimic') from Mongolia. It had a toothless beak, measured around 4.3 metres (14 feet) in length, and is estimated to have been able to run at speeds in excess of 50km/h (31 mph). It most likely had feathers.
