Ernest described several discoveries made in Egypt, including few dinosaurs from Cretaceous period discovered in Egypt (''Aegyptosaurus,'' ''Bahariasaurus'', and ''Carcharodontosaurus''), an enigmatic theropod (''Spinosaurus aegyptiacus'') and a giant crocodilian (''Stomatosuchus'').
In 1929 fossil bird genus ''Stromeria'' (now included in the genus ''Eremopezus'') were named in Ernest’s honour by Kálmán Lambrecht. Smith et al. (2001) also named the sauropod ''Paralititan stromeri'' in his honour.
Unfortunately, many of the fossils discovered by Ernest were destroyed during World War II, thus leaving today’s scientists to solely rely on few photographs of previously existing specimens. Provided by Wikipedia
