Het geëet: VleisVleisvretende dino'sLaat Trias tot Vroeë Jura

Syntarsus was a fast, meat-eating dinosaur that lived about 200 million years ago. It was a relative of Coelophysis and used its sharp teeth and long legs to chase down small prey. Some fossils show that it might have lived in groups.2

Prettige feite

Syntarsus had a long, slim body and a tail that helped it keep balance while running fast.2

Fossils of Syntarsus have been found in Arizona in the Kayenta Formation and in South Africa in the Elliot Formation.2 2

The species Syntarsus kayentakatae was named by Timothy Rowe in 1989 from a partial skeleton found in Arizona.2 1

Syntarsus lived during the Early Jurassic, about 199 to 183 million years ago, in what is now the southwestern United States and southern Africa.2

Scientists think Syntarsus was a fast and agile hunter, using its long legs to chase after lizards and small dinosaurs.2

The name Syntarsus was first used by Michael Raath in 1969 for fossils found in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe).2

KI-prent van Syntarsus — 'n KI-prent van hoe Syntarsus 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: Syntarsus
Benoem deur: Raath 19692
Groep: Vleisvretende dino's
Familie / klade: Coelophysoidea2
Klassifikasie: Theropoda > Coelophysoidea2
Ouderdom van die rotse: 206 tot 184 miljoen jaar (Rhaetian / Pliensbachian)2
Rotsformasies: Kayenta, Elliot, Moenave2
Lande: VSA, Suid-Afrika2
Fossielrekords: 11 in The Paleobiology Database2
Ontdekking: The first Syntarsus fossils were found in the Forest Sandstone of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and named by Michael Raath in 1969. Another species, Syntarsus kayentakatae, was named by Timothy Rowe in 1989 from the Kayenta Formation in Arizona.2 2 1
Steeds omstrede: Scientists still debate whether Syntarsus should be called a separate genus or classified as a type of Coelophysis. Some researchers suggest the name Megapnosaurus instead.2 2
