Yayitya: InyamaIi-ichthyosauriiTriassic yokuqalaNgokwenene ayisiyo dayinaso

Gulosaurus was an early ichthyosaur, a marine reptile that lived in the ocean during the Early Triassic. It looked a bit like a dolphin and swam by paddling with its flippers. It was about 1.5 meters long, as long as a bicycle.1

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

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Gulosaurus had five fingers on each flipper, like a human hand, instead of many extra finger bones that later ichthyosaurs had.1

Its name honors the Wolverine Nordic and Mountain Society and Dr. Charles Helm, who helped find fossils near Wapiti Lake.1

Scientists first thought Gulosaurus was either Grippia or Parvinatator, but a skull found in 2013 showed it was a new species.1

Gulosaurus lived about 250 to 248 million years ago, soon after the biggest mass extinction on Earth.2

Its skull had a notch on the first metacarpal bone in the flipper, which was different from its close relative Grippia.1

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

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Gulosaurus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Cuthbertson et al. 20133
Iqela: Ii-ichthyosauri
Usapho / iclade: Grippidia3
Ukuhlelwa: Ichthyosauromorpha3
Ubudala bamatye: 251 ukuya ku-249 izigidi zeminyaka ()3
Izakhiwo zamatye: Sulphur Mountain3
Amazwe: iKhanada3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ukufunyanwa: Gulosaurus was named by Robin Cuthbertson, Anthony Russell, and Jason Anderson in 2013. The first fossil was incomplete, but a second half with the skull was found later and showed it was a new species.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure what the front teeth of Grippia looked like, so they cannot be certain how Gulosaurus's teeth compared.1
