Agilisaurus

Naam beteken: “agile lizard”1
Het geëet: PlantePlantvreters met snawelsMiddel-Jura tot Laat Jura

Agilisaurus was a tiny, speedy plant-eater that darted through the forests of ancient China. It had a beak for snipping plants and long legs for running fast. This little dinosaur is one of the most complete small ornithischian skeletons ever found.2

Prettige feite

1

Agilisaurus had a lower leg bone (tibia) that was longer than its upper leg bone (femur), which made it an extremely fast runner.2

2

Its skeleton is one of the most complete small ornithischian skeletons ever found, missing only a few parts of the left forelimb and hind limb.2

3

The wavy enamel on its teeth was once thought to be unique to hadrosaurs, but Agilisaurus had it too.2

4

Agilisaurus may have been a burrow dweller because its tail lacked stiffening bony struts.2

5

Based on its scleral rings (eye bones), scientists think Agilisaurus was active during the day, unlike many larger herbivorous dinosaurs.2

6

The only known skeleton was discovered in 1984 while workers were building the Zigong Dinosaur Museum, where it now lives.2

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Agilisaurus

?How big was Agilisaurus?

Agilisaurus was about 1.2 to 1.7 metres (3.9 to 5.6 feet) long, 60 centimetres (2.0 feet) tall at the hip, and weighed around 40 kilograms (88 pounds).2

?What did Agilisaurus eat?

Agilisaurus was a plant-eater. It had leaf-shaped teeth for chewing tough plants and a beak to snip off leaves.21

?How fast could Agilisaurus run?

Agilisaurus was an extremely fast runner. Its lower leg bone was longer than its upper leg bone, which helped it sprint on two legs.2

?When did Agilisaurus live?

Agilisaurus lived during the Middle Jurassic Period, about 168 to 161 million years ago.21

Mite-breker

Mite: Some people think Agilisaurus was a slow, clumsy plant-eater.

Waarheid: Actually, its long legs and lightweight skeleton show it was one of the fastest small dinosaurs, able to sprint quickly.2

Agilisaurus was named by Chinese paleontologist Peng Guangzhou in 1990. The only skeleton was found in 1984 during construction of the Zigong Dinosaur Museum in Sichuan, China.2
Steeds omstrede
Scientists still debate exactly where Agilisaurus fits in the dinosaur family tree. It has been placed in several different groups over the years.2
