Hamipterus

Naam beteken: “Hami wing”1
Het geëet: VisVlieënde reptieleVroeë KrytTegnies nie 'n dinosourus nie

Hamipterus was a flying reptile with a wingspan as wide as a car! It lived in a big lake area in China and ate fish. Hundreds of Hamipterus fossils were found together, including eggs and soft parts like skin.12

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

Prettige feite

1

Hamipterus fossils were found in huge numbers, probably from a nesting colony that was buried by a storm. Over 40 individuals were collected, and there may have been hundreds.1

2

Unlike most pterosaurs, Hamipterus bones are three-dimensional and not squashed flat. Scientists even found the horny sheaths that covered its head crests.1

3

Five uncrushed eggs were found with the Hamipterus fossils. That is very rare for pterosaurs.1

4

Hamipterus had a hook-shaped bony process on the tip of its lower jaw, which scientists think helped it grab slippery fish.3

5

Male and female Hamipterus looked different. The paratype skull is thought to be from a male, while the holotype is probably a female.1

6

The tooth enamel of Hamipterus was very thin, only covering about half of each tooth crown.1

'n KI-prent van hoe Hamipterus 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.

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Hamipterus

?How big was Hamipterus?

Hamipterus had a wingspan of 1.5 to 3.5 metres, which is about as wide as a small car.1

?Did Hamipterus have feathers?

No, Hamipterus was a pterosaur, a flying reptile, not a dinosaur. Pterosaurs did not have feathers; they had a fur-like covering called pycnofibers.1

?What did Hamipterus eat?

Hamipterus ate fish. It had a hook-shaped bony process on the tip of its lower jaw that helped it grab slippery fish.1

Ontdekking
Hamipterus was named in 2014 by Wang Xiaolin and a team of scientists. The fossils were found in the Hami region of Xinjiang, China, starting in 2006.1
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure exactly where Hamipterus fits in the pterosaur family tree. It may be close to Istiodactylus, Ludodactylus, or the Anhangueridae.1
