Thililua was a short-necked plesiosaur that swam in warm seas off the coast of Africa. It had a long, slender snout and many sharp teeth to catch fish. This marine reptile was about as long as a small bus.1

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

izinto ezimnandi

Iinyani ezimnandi

Thililua is the first polycotylid plesiosaur ever found in Africa.1

Its name comes from a Berber water god, because it lived in the sea.1

Thililua had 30 neck vertebrae, and some of them had ridges on the sides that no other polycotylid had.1

The only known fossil includes a nearly complete skull and 37 vertebrae, found in a nodule of rock.1

Thililua lived about 93 to 90 million years ago, during the Turonian stage of the Late Cretaceous.3

Its teeth were all about the same size, with no big fangs like some other plesiosaurs.1

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

?How big was Thililua?

Thililua was about 5.5 to 6 metres long, which is roughly the length of a small bus.2 1

?What did Thililua eat?

Thililua ate fish and other small sea creatures. It had a long, slender snout and many sharp, cone-shaped teeth that were all about the same size, perfect for catching slippery prey.2 1

?When did Thililua live?

Thililua lived about 93 to 90 million years ago, during the early Turonian stage of the Late Cretaceous period.2 3

Igama lenzululwazi: Thililua
Inikwe igama ngu:: Bardet et al. 20033
Iqela: Iiplesiosauri
Usapho / iclade: Polycotylidae3
Ukuhlelwa: Plesiosauria > Sauropterygia3
Ubudala bamatye: 94 ukuya ku-90 izigidi zeminyaka (Turonian)3
Izakhiwo zamatye: Akrabou3
Amazwe: iMorocco3
Iirekhodi zeefosili: 1 kwi-Paleobiology Database3
Ukufunyanwa: Thililua was named in 2003 by Nathalie Bardet, Xabier Pereda Suberbiola, and Nour-Eddine Jalil. The only specimen was found near Goulmima in Morocco, though the exact spot is unknown.1
Kusaxoxwa ngayo: Scientists are not sure whether Thililua was more closely related to long-necked plesiosaurs or to short-necked pliosaurs.1
