酷東西

趣味知識

Chinshakiangosaurus is one of the few early sauropods with preserved skull bones, which helps scientists understand how sauropods evolved.1

Its lower jaw was curved into a U-shape, like later sauropods, but unlike the V-shaped jaws of earlier prosauropods.1

Scientists think Chinshakiangosaurus may have had fleshy cheeks, a feature that helped it hold food while chewing.1 2

The only known fossil includes a left lower jaw, neck and back vertebrae, shoulder blades, hip bones, and hind legs.1

The name was first used in 1975 but was not properly described until 1992, so for many years it was just a name without a description.1

Chinshakiangosaurus lived about 200 million years ago, during the Hettangian stage of the Early Jurassic.3

關於 Chinshakiangosaurus 最常被問的問題

?How big was Chinshakiangosaurus?

About 12 to 13 meters long. That is roughly the length of a large city bus.1 2

?What did Chinshakiangosaurus eat?

It was an herbivore (plant-eater). Its broad U-shaped snout and blunt teeth helped it eat large amounts of leaves and other plants.1

?Did Chinshakiangosaurus have feathers?

There is no evidence that Chinshakiangosaurus had feathers. Sauropods like this one are not known to have feathers.1

?Is Chinshakiangosaurus a dinosaur?

Yes, it is a dinosaur. It is a basal sauropod, a type of long-necked plant-eating dinosaur.1 3

發現: The fossils were found in 1970 by Zhao Xijin and his team in Yongren County, Yunnan, China. The name was first used by Yeh in 1975, but the official description was published by Dong Zhiming in 1992.1
仍有爭議: Scientists are not sure exactly how Chinshakiangosaurus is related to other early sauropods, because most of its skeleton has not been studied in detail yet.1
