Eoazhdarcho was a small flying reptile that lived in the Early Cretaceous period, about 120 million years ago. It had a wingspan of about 1.6 metres (5.2 feet) and probably ate fish. Its fossils were found in Liaoning, China.1 3

Prettige feit: pterosourusse het oor die dinosourusse gevlieg, maar hulle was hul neefs, nie self dinosourusse nie.

Prettige feite

Eoazhdarcho is known from a partial skeleton and lower jaw, found in the Jiufotang Formation of China.1

Its name means 'dawn Azhdarcho' because it was an early relative of the larger pterosaur Azhdarcho.1

Scientists think Eoazhdarcho belonged to a group called Chaoyangopteridae, which are close cousins of the giant azhdarchids.1

The ratio of its humerus (upper arm bone) to femur (thigh bone) is about 0.96, meaning its arms and legs were almost the same length.2

Eoazhdarcho lived around 120 million years ago, during the Aptian age of the Early Cretaceous.1 3

KI-prent van Eoazhdarcho — 'n KI-prent van hoe Eoazhdarcho 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.

Vir dino-kenners

Wetenskaplike naam: Eoazhdarcho
Benoem deur: Lü and Ji 20053
Groep: Vlieënde reptiele
Familie / klade: Azhdarchidae3
Klassifikasie: Pterosauria > Pterodactyloidea > Azhdarchidae3
Ouderdom van die rotse: 121 tot 113 miljoen jaar (Aptian)3
Rotsformasies: Jiufotang3
Lande: China3
Fossielrekords: 1 in The Paleobiology Database3
Ontdekking: Eoazhdarcho was named in 2005 by Chinese paleontologists Lü Junchang and Ji Qiang, based on a partial skeleton found in Chaoyang, Liaoning, China.1 3
Steeds omstrede: Scientists are not sure whether Eoazhdarcho belongs to the Chaoyangopteridae family or to a different group within the pterosaurs, as different studies have placed it in different positions.1
