Neuquensaurus

Igama lithetha: “Neuquén (River) lizard”1

Yayitya: IzityaloIintamo-ndeiCretaceous yamva

Neuquensaurus was a small, armored sauropod that stomped through Argentina about 83 to 74 million years ago. It had bony plates on its back like a suit of armor, which was rare for long-necked dinosaurs. Despite its size, it was one of the most completely known sauropods from Patagonia.2 1

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Neuquensaurus had a femur (thigh bone) only 0.75 metres (2.5 feet) long, making it one of the smallest sauropods.2

It carried bony plates called osteoderms on its back for protection, which was unusual for sauropods.2 1

Its name comes from the Neuquén River in Argentina, where its fossils were first found.2

Scientists think Neuquensaurus was a close relative of Saltasaurus, another armored sauropod.1

It lived during the Late Cretaceous, about 83 to 74.5 million years ago.2

Some of its fossils include a well-preserved partial skeleton with two osteoderms still attached.2

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

?How big was Neuquensaurus?

It was a relatively small sauropod, measuring about 7 to 9 metres long and weighing 1.8 to 3.5 tonnes.2 1

?Did Neuquensaurus have armor?

Yes, it had bony plates called osteoderms on its back that acted like a suit of armor, which was unusual for sauropods.2 1

?What did Neuquensaurus eat?

It was a herbivore, meaning it ate plants.1 4

?When did Neuquensaurus live?

It lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 83 to 74.5 million years ago.2 1

Inyaniso ngeentsomi

Intsomi: Some people think Neuquensaurus was a giant like other sauropods.

Inyaniso: It was actually quite small for a sauropod, only about 7 to 9 metres (23 to 30 feet) long and weighing 1.8 to 3.5 metric tons (2.0 to 3.9 short tons).2

Igama lenzululwazi: Neuquensaurus
Inikwe igama ngu:: Powell 19925
Iqela: Iintamo-nde
Usapho / iclade: Saltasauridae5
Ukuhlelwa: Sauropodomorpha > Sauropoda > Titanosauria > Macronaria5
Ubudala bamatye: 86 ukuya ku-66 izigidi zeminyaka (Santonian / Maastrichtian)5
Izakhiwo zamatye: Anacleto, Bajo de la Carpa, Allen5
Amazwe: i-Argentina, iUruguay, iBrazil5
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 15 kwi-Paleobiology Database5
Ikwaziwa ngokuba: Loricosaurus, Microcoelus (amagama amadala ngoku abalwa njengesilwanyana esinye)5
Ukufunyanwa: The first fossils were named Titanosaurus australis by Richard Lydekker in 1893, based on tail bones and limb bones found near the Neuquén River in Argentina. In 1992, Jaime Eduardo Powell gave it the new genus name Neuquensaurus.2
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure whether some species, like Neuquensaurus robustus, are valid or just doubtful names.2 3
