Lewisuchus was a small, early dinosaur relative that lived around 236 million years ago. It walked on two legs and had a beak, which it used to eat plants. This reptile is one of the closest known relatives of true dinosaurs.1 3

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Lewisuchus had a row of bony plates called osteoderms along its back, which may have helped protect it.1

Its full scientific name is Lewisuchus admixtus, and 'admixtus' means 'mixed', because its skeleton was found mixed with bones of other animals.1

Scientists once called it Pseudolagosuchus, but later realized those fossils came from the same type of animal.1 3

The first skeleton was discovered inside a hard rock nodule in Argentina during a 1964 to 1965 expedition.1

Lewisuchus lived during the Late Triassic Period, when the first dinosaurs were just appearing.1 3

It was about 1 meter (3.3 feet) long, about the size of a large dog.1

Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI: Lewisuchus — Umfanekiso owenziwe yi-AI obonisa indlela Lewisuchus 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: Lewisuchus

?Is Lewisuchus a dinosaur?

No, it is not a dinosaur. It is a silesaurid dinosauriform, one of the closest relatives of dinosaurs.1

?Where was Lewisuchus found?

In the Chañares Formation of Argentina.1

?Did Lewisuchus have teeth?

Yes, it had small, serrated teeth in its upper and lower jaws.1 2

?How did Lewisuchus get its name?

It means 'Lewis's crocodile'. The name honors Arnold Lewis, who discovered the skeleton, and references the Egyptian crocodile god Sobek.1

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Some people think Lewisuchus was a true dinosaur.

Inyaniso: Scientists now place Lewisuchus in the group Silesauridae, which are close relatives of dinosaurs but not necessarily true dinosaurs themselves.1

Kwiingcali zeedayinaso

Igama lenzululwazi: Lewisuchus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Romer 19723
Iqela: Izitya-zityalo ezinemilomo
Usapho / iclade: Silesauridae3
Ukuhlelwa: Ornithischia3
Ubudala bamatye: 241 ukuya ku-234 izigidi zeminyaka (Ladinian / Carnian)3
Izakhiwo zamatye: Chañares3
Amazwe: i-Argentina3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 4 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ikwaziwa ngokuba: Pseudolagosuchus (amagama amadala ngoku abalwa njengesilwanyana esinye)3
Ukufunyanwa: Alfred Romer named Lewisuchus in 1972, based on a partial skeleton found in the Chañares Formation of Argentina. The holotype specimen is stored at the Museo de La Plata and later moved to the National University of La Rioja.1 3
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists still debate whether Lewisuchus should be classified as a true dinosaur or as a close dinosaur relative.1
