Xuanhanosaurus was a meat-eating dinosaur that stomped around China about 168 million years ago. It was a medium-sized hunter with strong arms and sharp teeth. Imagine a big lizard built for chasing prey!12

Fatgs divertents

1

Xuanhanosaurus had a forearm that was relatively massive and long, which is unusual for a meat-eating dinosaur of its time.1

2

Its humerus, the upper arm bone, was straight and had a medial deltopectoral crest, a feature that helped attach strong muscles.1

3

The ratio of the maximum length of its humerus to its radius was 1.3, which scientists say is extremely conservative for a carnosaur.1

4

Xuanhanosaurus had a metacarpal III that was comparatively massive, and its metacarpal IV was short and light.1

5

The fossils come from the Lower Shaximiao Formation, which is Middle Jurassic in age, about 170 to 168 million years old.2

?What did Xuanhanosaurus eat?

Anc discutà
Scientists debate whether Xuanhanosaurus belongs to the Megalosauridae family or to a group called Piatnitzkysauridae, so its exact family tree is still uncertain.3
