Corosaurus was an ancient marine reptile that swam in the seas of Wyoming during the Early Triassic, about 247 million years ago. It looked a bit like a long-bodied lizard with flippers and was a fierce hunter of small sea creatures.1

Inyani emnandi: esi sirhubuluzi saselwandle sasiqubha ngelixa iidayinaso zazihamba emhlabeni. Wonke umntu uzibiza ngokuba ziidayinaso, kodwa zazilisebe elahlukileyo lezirhubuluzi.

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Corosaurus is a close relative of plesiosaurs, the long-necked marine reptiles that lived later in the dinosaur age.2

The first Corosaurus fossil was found in the Alcova Limestone Formation in Wyoming and named by paleontologist Ermine Cowles Case in 1936.1

Corosaurus lived during the Early Triassic, just a few million years after the biggest mass extinction in Earth's history.1

Scientists think Corosaurus was a planktonic suspension feeder, meaning it may have filtered tiny floating organisms from the water.3

The largest Corosaurus individuals could grow over 4 meters (13 feet) long, about as long as a small car.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Corosaurus — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Corosaurus esenokuba wayekhangeleka ngayo, wenziwe yikhompyutha ngokwento eyaziwa zizazinzulu. Kukuqikelela nje: esona silwanyana sinokuba sasikhangeleka ngenye indlela, kwaye akukho mntu waziyo imibala yaso yokwenyani.

ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Corosaurus

?How big was Corosaurus?

Corosaurus ranged from about 1.65 meters (5.4 feet) for the holotype to over 4 meters (13 feet) for larger individuals, about as long as a small car.1

?When did Corosaurus live?

Corosaurus lived during the Early Triassic, about 247.4 to 245 million years ago, in what is now Wyoming, United States.1

?Is Corosaurus a dinosaur?

No, Corosaurus is a marine reptile called a pistosauroid, not a dinosaur. It is a close relative of plesiosaurs, which lived later.1

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Corosaurus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Case 19363
Iqela: Izirhubuluzi zaselwandle
Usapho / iclade: Eosauropterygia3
Ukuhlelwa: Sauropterygia3
Ubudala bamatye: 249 ukuya ku-247 izigidi zeminyaka ()3
Izakhiwo zamatye: Crow Mountain3
Amazwe: iUSA3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 4 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ukufunyanwa: Corosaurus was first named by Ermine Cowles Case in 1936 based on a partial skeleton found in the Alcova Limestone of Wyoming. The species name alcovensis comes from the rock formation where it was discovered.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are still debating exactly how Corosaurus is related to other marine reptiles like plesiosaurs and whether it was a filter feeder or a predator of larger prey.3 2
