Fakte argëtuese
Ambopteryx had a long, rod-like bone sticking out from its wrist that helped support a wing membrane, just like in pterosaurs and bats.2
Its forelimbs were 1.3 times longer than its hindlimbs, which is unusual for a dinosaur.1
Ambopteryx had a short tail that ended in a fused pygostyle, a feature also seen in modern birds.1
This dinosaur was about the size of a modern pigeon, measuring only 32 cm (about 1 foot) long.1
The name Ambopteryx means 'both wing' because its wing was like a pterosaur's but it was a dinosaur.1
Fossilized feathers were found around its head, neck, and shoulders, showing it had a fluffy coat.1
