Technosaurus was a small, plant-eating reptile that lived in Texas during the Late Triassic, about 210 million years ago. It had special teeth with extra bumps that helped it chew tough plants.12

Prettige feite

1

Technosaurus was named in 1984 by Sankar Chatterjee, who thought it was a small early dinosaur called a fabrosaurid.1

2

For about 20 years, scientists believed Technosaurus was a very early ornithischian dinosaur, but later studies showed it might not be a dinosaur at all.1

3

The original fossils of Technosaurus were a mix of bones from different animals, including a jaw piece that later turned out to belong to a strange crocodile-like reptile called Shuvosaurus.1

4

Technosaurus had teeth with both front and back accessory cusps (extra bumps), a feature that helps identify it as an ornithischian.2

5

The name Technosaurus comes from Texas Tech University, where the fossils were studied.1

6

Technosaurus lived during the Norian age of the Late Triassic, about 210 million years ago.13

Mees gevraagde vrae oor Technosaurus

?Is Technosaurus a dinosaur?

Technosaurus is not considered a dinosaur. Scientists now believe the fossils originally identified as Technosaurus are actually a mix of different prehistoric animals.1

?How big was Technosaurus?

Nobody knows for sure, because only a few jaw and skull pieces have been found. It was probably small, like other early plant-eaters from the Triassic.1

?What did Technosaurus eat?

It was a plant-eater. Its teeth had extra bumps that helped it chew tough plants.3

?When did Technosaurus live?

It lived during the Late Triassic, about 210 million years ago.1

Mite-breker

Mite: Technosaurus is definitely a dinosaur.

Waarheid: Scientists are not sure if Technosaurus is a true dinosaur or a close relative called a silesaurid. It may be a dinosauriform, not a dinosaur.1
