Doliovertebra

Naam beteken: “barrel vertebra”2

Het geëet: 'n Bietjie van allesSeereptieleMiddel-TriasTegnies nie 'n dinosourus nie

Doliovertebra was a small marine reptile that swam in the seas during the Triassic Period, about 247 to 241 million years ago. It was a sauropterygian, a group of ocean-dwelling reptiles, but it was not a dinosaur.2

Prettige feit: hierdie seereptiel het geswem terwyl dinosourusse op land geloop het. Almal noem hulle dino's, maar hulle was 'n ander tak van die reptiele.

Prettige feite

Doliovertebra lived in the Anisian age, which was about 247 to 241 million years ago, during the middle part of the Triassic Period.1

Its fossils were found in the Jena Formation in Germany, which was a marine environment at the time.1

The name Doliovertebra means 'barrel vertebra', which might refer to the shape of its backbone bones.2

Scientists think it was an actively moving animal that lived in the ocean, not on land.1

Doliovertebra is known from only one fossil site, making it a very rare find.1

KI-prent van Doliovertebra — 'n KI-prent van hoe Doliovertebra dalk gelyk het, deur 'n rekenaar gemaak uit wat wetenskaplikes weet. Dit is 'n raaiskoot: die regte dier het dalk anders gelyk, en niemand weet wat sy regte kleure was nie.

Mite-breker

Mite: Doliovertebra was a dinosaur.

Waarheid: Doliovertebra was a marine reptile called a sauropterygian, not a dinosaur. Dinosaurs lived on land and had different body features.2

Vir dino-kenners

Wetenskaplike naam: Doliovertebra
Benoem deur: Huene 19022
Groep: Seereptiele
Familie / klade: Pachypleurosauridae2
Klassifikasie: Sauropterygia2
Ouderdom van die rotse: 247 tot 241 miljoen jaar ()2
Rotsformasies: Jena2
Lande: Duitsland2
Fossielrekords: 1 in The Paleobiology Database2
Ontdekking: Doliovertebra was named by the scientist F. v. Huene in 1902. The first fossils were found at Freyburg an der Unstrut in Germany.2
Steeds omstrede: Scientists are not sure if Doliovertebra is a valid genus. Some researchers think it might be a nomen dubium, meaning the fossils are too incomplete to be certain about its identity.1
