Prettige feite

1

Ganzhousaurus lived alongside at least four other oviraptorid dinosaurs, including Banji long and Nankangia jiangxiensis, all in the same area.1

2

Its lower jaw had a shallow groove and a special window (the external mandibular fenestra) that was split into two parts by a bone.2

3

The name Ganzhousaurus means 'Ganzhou lizard' after the city in China where its fossils were found.1

4

Ganzhousaurus lived during the very end of the Cretaceous Period, about 72 to 66 million years ago.1

5

Scientists are not sure exactly where Ganzhousaurus fits in the oviraptorid family tree; some think it is related to Oviraptor, others to the 'ingeniine' group.1

6

This dinosaur probably had feathers, like many of its oviraptorid relatives, helping it stay warm and maybe even show off.1

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Ganzhousaurus

?How big was Ganzhousaurus?

Its exact size is not known from the sources, but it was a small oviraptorid dinosaur, similar in size to other members of its group.12

?What did Ganzhousaurus eat?

Ganzhousaurus was probably mostly herbivorous, eating plants and seeds with its beaky mouth and strong claws.1

?Did Ganzhousaurus have feathers?

Yes, like many of its oviraptorid relatives, Ganzhousaurus probably had feathers to keep warm and maybe for display.1

Mite-breker

Mite: Some people think all oviraptorids were egg thieves.

Waarheid: Ganzhousaurus and its relatives probably ate plants and small animals, not just eggs. Their beaks were well-suited for crushing seeds and tough plants.1

Ontdekking
Ganzhousaurus was named in 2013 by scientists Shuo Wang, Chengkai Sun, Corwin Sullivan, and Xing Xu, based on a single skeleton found in the Nanxiong Formation of southern China.12
Steeds omstrede
Scientists still debate whether Ganzhousaurus was more closely related to Oviraptor or to the 'ingeniine' group of oviraptorids.1
