izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Microdontosaurus lived about 174 to 161 million years ago, during the Middle Jurassic period.3

Its name means 'tiny-toothed lizard', because its teeth were very small.1

Scientists think it was a marine reptile, not a dinosaur, even though its name sounds like one.3

The fossils were found in rocks that were once part of a shallow sea.3

Microdontosaurus is known from only a few bones, so scientists are still unsure about many details of its life.1

Inikwe igama ngu:: Zhao 19833
Iqela: Ii-ichthyosauri
Usapho / iclade: Sauropoda3
Ukuhlelwa: Sauropodomorpha > Sauropoda > Ichthyosauria > Ichthyosauromorpha3
Ubudala bamatye: 175 ukuya ku-162 izigidi zeminyaka (Aalenian / Callovian)3
Amazwe: iTshayina3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ukufunyanwa: Microdontosaurus was named by Zhao in 1983, based on fossils from China. The type species is called M. dayensis.3
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists debate whether Microdontosaurus is a valid genus, because the fossils are incomplete and may belong to another animal.1
