Prettige feite

Baiyinosaurus is the only stegosaur named from Gansu Province, China.1

Its frontal bone is wider than long, a unique feature among stegosaurs.2

The fossils were discovered in 2016 by Li Daqing and his team.1

Baiyinosaurus lived about 168 to 165 million years ago, during the late Bathonian age.3

Its back vertebrae have short neural arches and broad neural spines, different from later stegosaurs.2

Baiyinosaurus is a transitional form between early armored dinosaurs and early stegosaurs.2

Nearby fossils include possible mamenchisaurid sauropods and large theropod teeth.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Baiyinosaurus

?How big was Baiyinosaurus?

Scientists do not know its exact size yet because only a partial skeleton has been found. It was a medium-sized stegosaur, but no total length or weight has been estimated from the known bones.1 2

?What did Baiyinosaurus eat?

Baiyinosaurus was a plant-eater (herbivore). It had leaf-shaped teeth in its jaws and a beak at the front of its mouth for cropping low-growing plants.1 2

?When did Baiyinosaurus live?

Baiyinosaurus lived during the Middle Jurassic period, about 168 to 165 million years ago (late Bathonian age).1 2

?Where was Baiyinosaurus found?

Its fossils were discovered in the Wangjiashan Formation in Pingchuan District, Baiyin City, Gansu Province, China.1 2
