Majiashanosaurus was a small, early marine reptile that swam in the warm seas of what is now China about 248 million years ago. It had a flat, round shoulder bone that looked like a dinner plate, which made it different from its relatives. This reptile lived alongside the early fish-lizard Chaohusaurus.1

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

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Majiashanosaurus is known from just one fossil: a nearly complete skeleton missing only the skull and a few tail bones.1

Its name comes from the place where it was found, Majiashan, plus the Greek word 'sauros' meaning lizard.1

The species name 'discocoracoidis' means 'disk-shaped coracoid' because its shoulder bone was round and flat like a coin.1

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

The fossil was found lying on its back, so scientists see the underside of the skeleton.1

Majiashanosaurus had a curved upper arm bone and double-headed ribs in its neck, features that help identify it as a sauropterygian.1

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