Convolosaurus was a small, plant-eating dinosaur that lived in what is now Texas. It got its name because many young fossils were found together, suggesting they lived in flocks.1 2

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Convolosaurus had four teeth in the front of its upper jaw, a feature that helps scientists tell it apart from other ornithopods.2

Fossils of at least 29 individuals were found at the Proctor Lake site, including many young dinosaurs.2

The name Convolosaurus means 'flocking lizard' because the fossils were found in clusters, possibly from a nesting site.1 2

This dinosaur lived during the Early Cretaceous period, about 125 million years ago.1 4

Convolosaurus had curved tooth roots in its upper jaw, a more advanced feature for its time.2

The largest known Convolosaurus skeleton was about 2.5 to 3 meters long, but it was not a full-grown adult.2

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

Convolosaurus was a plant-eating dinosaur. It belonged to a group called ornithopods, which were herbivores.3

?Why is it called Convolosaurus?

Its name means 'flocking lizard' because many young fossils were found clustered together, suggesting they lived in flocks.1 2

Inikwe igama ngu:: Andrzejewski et al. 20194
Iqela: Izitya-zityalo ezinemilomo
Usapho / iclade: Tenontosauridae4
Ukuhlelwa: Ornithischia > Ornithopoda > Iguanodontia4
Ubudala bamatye: 120 ukuya ku-113 izigidi zeminyaka (Aptian)4
Izakhiwo zamatye: Twin Mountains4
Amazwe: iUSA4
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database4
Ukufunyanwa: Convolosaurus was named in 2019 by Kate A. Andrzejewski, Dale A. Winkler, and Louis Leo Jacobs. The fossils were first discovered near Proctor Lake, Texas in May 1985.1 2
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure how large a fully grown Convolosaurus could get, because the biggest skeleton found was still a juvenile.2
