Prettige feite

1

Jintasaurus is known from only one partial skull, which includes the bones behind the eye but lacks the cheek and jaw bones.1

2

Its discovery helped scientists think that duck-billed dinosaurs (hadrosaurs) first evolved in Asia.1

3

Jintasaurus lived about 121 to 113 million years ago, during the Aptian age of the Early Cretaceous.2

4

The only known fossil of Jintasaurus was found in the Xiagou Formation, which is made of mudstone from an ancient lake or river.2

5

Jintasaurus is a hadrosauromorph, meaning it is a close cousin of the duck-billed dinosaurs but not quite one itself.1
