Bellusaurus was a small, lightly built long-necked dinosaur that lived in China during the Late Jurassic. It is known from many young skeletons found together, which suggests it traveled in herds.1 2

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Seventeen Bellusaurus skeletons were found in a single quarry, which scientists think means a whole herd died together in a flash flood.1

The known Bellusaurus fossils are all from young animals, maybe only about two years old, and they were still growing fast when they died.1

Bellusaurus was small and lightly built compared to many other sauropods, which is why its name means beautiful lizard.1

The species name sui honors Youling Sui, a dinosaur fossil restorer, and Bellusaurus was the last restoration he worked on.1

Scientists do not agree on exactly where Bellusaurus belongs in the dinosaur family tree. Some place it near the base of Macronaria, while a 2023 study suggests it was a mamenchisaurid.1

Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.

ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Bellusaurus

?How big was Bellusaurus?

?When did Bellusaurus live?

It lived during the Middle to Late Jurassic, about 166 to 159 million years ago.2

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Bellusaurus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Dong 19904
Iqela: Iintamo-nde
Usapho / iclade: Mamenchisauridae4
Ukuhlelwa: Sauropodomorpha > Sauropoda4
Ubudala bamatye: 159 ukuya ku-158 izigidi zeminyaka ()4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Shishugou4
Amazwe: iTshayina4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: Bellusaurus was named by Chinese paleontologist Dong Zhiming in 1990. The fossils were found in the Shishugou Formation in China, and the type species is Bellusaurus sui.1 3
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists debate whether Bellusaurus was a mamenchisaurid or a more primitive sauropod, because the known fossils are all from juveniles.1
