Prettige feite

Kwanasaurus had a very deep and strong upper jaw (maxilla), much thicker than any other silesaurid.1

Its teeth were leaf-shaped with thick ridges on the tongue side, similar to some early armored dinosaurs.1

Kwanasaurus had 12 teeth in its upper jaw and 14 in its lower jaw, and the middle teeth were the biggest.1

It lived about 215 to 207 million years ago, during the Norian stage of the Late Triassic.1

Kwanasaurus was the northernmost silesaurid ever found in North America.1

Its skull bones had ridges and bumps, suggesting it ate tougher plants than its relatives.1

Kwanasaurus was named in 2019 by scientists Jeffrey Martz and Bryan Small, honoring paleontologist Bill Parker.1 2

Vir dino-kenners

Wetenskaplike naam: Kwanasaurus
Benoem deur: Martz and Small 20193
Groep: Plantvreters met snawels
Familie / klade: Silesauridae3
Klassifikasie: Ornithischia3
Ouderdom van die rotse: 227 tot 201 miljoen jaar (Norian / Rhaetian)3
Rotsformasies: Chinle3
Lande: VSA3
Fossielrekords: 6 in The Paleobiology Database3
Ontdekking: Kwanasaurus was discovered in the Eagle Basin of Colorado and named in 2019 by Jeffrey Martz and Bryan Small. The name comes from the Ute word for eagle, and the species name honors paleontologist Bill Parker.1 2
Steeds omstrede: Scientists are not sure whether some leg and shoulder bones found nearby belong to Kwanasaurus, because they lack clear silesaurid features.1
