izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Jiangxisaurus had a very long lower jaw compared to other oviraptorids, with a height-to-length ratio of about 20%.1

Its arm bones show that the radius (forearm bone) was only about 70% as long as the humerus (upper arm bone).1

The only known fossil of Jiangxisaurus is a partial skeleton that includes part of the skull, neck bones, and a nearly complete shoulder and arm.1

This dinosaur lived about 72 to 66 million years ago, during the very end of the Cretaceous Period.1 3

Jiangxisaurus shared its home with many other dinosaurs, including the tyrannosaur Qianzhousaurus and several other oviraptorids.1

Its skull was about 150 mm long, and the animal was probably a sub-adult when it died.1

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

ubuzile

Eyona mibuzo ibuzwa kakhulu: Jiangxisaurus

?What did Jiangxisaurus eat?

Jiangxisaurus was most likely an omnivore, eating both plants and small animals. Its toothless beak and weak lower jaw suggest it may have eaten soft foods like leaves and seeds.1 2

?How big was Jiangxisaurus?

Jiangxisaurus was a medium-sized oviraptorid dinosaur. Its skull was about 150 mm long, and the only known fossil is from a sub-adult, so full size is not certain.1

?When did Jiangxisaurus live?

Jiangxisaurus lived during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 72 to 66 million years ago.1
