Though the " Hypsilophodon " fossils were not part of a single herd, the bones gradually having been accumulated, it has often been considered likely that the animals moved in large groups.

In the strange prehistoric redwood forest, Edward makes friends with a " Hypsilophodon ", and the stunned group spot an " Iguanodon ", and then a group of " Pteranodon " s who attack and injure Summerlee.
The first remains of " Hypsilophodon " were found in 1849; the type species, " Hypsilophodon foxii ", was named in 1869 . Abundant fossil discoveries were made on the Isle of Wight, giving a good impression of the build of the species.

The describers assigned it both to the Fabrosauridae and the Hypsilophodontidae, considering it an evolutionary link between " Lesothosaurus " and " Hypsilophodon " . " Xiaosaurus " has sometimes been considered a " nomen dubium " and an ornithischian cerapod or marginocephalian.

Starting in 1868, and following earlier suggestions by Karl Gegenbaur, and Edward Drinker Cope, Huxley made detailed comparisons of " Archaeopteryx " with various prehistoric reptiles and found that it was most similar to dinosaurs like " Hypsilophodon " and " Compsognathus ".
