酷東西

趣味知識

Burianosaurus is the first validly named dinosaur from the Czech Republic.1

Its name honors the famous Czech paleoartist Zdeněk Burian, who painted many prehistoric animals.1

The only known fossil is a well-preserved left thigh bone (femur) found in 2003.1 4

Scientists studied the bone's internal structure and found it came from a young adult.2

Burianosaurus lived about 100 to 94 million years ago during the Cenomanian stage of the Late Cretaceous.4

It was a basal ornithopod, meaning it was an early relative of bigger plant-eaters like Iguanodon.2

化石紀錄: The Paleobiology Database 收錄 1 筆4
發現: The fossil was discovered in 2003 in the Peruc-Korycany Formation of the Czech Republic. It was first described in 2005 as possibly an iguanodont, and then named Burianosaurus augustai by Daniel Madzia and colleagues in 2017.1 4
仍有爭議: Scientists are not sure exactly how Burianosaurus is related to other ornithopods, because its skeleton is incomplete.2
