Datos curiosos
Zupaysaurus had a kink in its snout, between the premaxillary and maxillary bones of the upper jaw, similar to some other early theropods.1
It is estimated that Zupaysaurus had about 24 teeth and a hinge in its lower jaw.1
The skull of Zupaysaurus was about 450 mm (18 inches) long, which suggests a body length of about 4 meters (13 feet).1
Zupaysaurus lived alongside early sauropodomorph dinosaurs like Riojasaurus, Coloradisaurus, and Lessemsaurus in the same environment.1
The Los Colorados Formation, where Zupaysaurus was found, was an ancient floodplain and is one of the earliest known faunal assemblages dominated by dinosaurs.1
Zupaysaurus is considered one of the oldest records of Tetanurae, a group of theropods, though scientists debate its exact classification.2
