酷東西

趣味知識

Galvesaurus lived about 150 to 146 million years ago, during the Tithonian age of the Late Jurassic.1

The first fossils were found in the 1980s by local amateur fossil hunter José María Herrero, who later gave the dinosaur its species name herreroi.1

Scientists have found more than 50 bones from one Galvesaurus skeleton, including parts of the skull, backbone, hips, and limbs.1

Galvesaurus had a slightly curved ischium (hip bone) with a simple end, unlike some other sauropods.2

It belongs to the group Brachiosauridae, making it a relative of the famous Brachiosaurus.4

發現: José María Herrero found the first fossils in the 1980s near Galve, Spain. A team from Zaragoza University excavated the site from 1993 to 2002 and recovered over 50 bones. In 2005, two different research groups published names for the dinosaur: one called it Galvesaurus herreroi, and the other named it Galveosaurus herreroi.1
仍有爭議: Some scientists think Galvesaurus might be the same as the Portuguese dinosaur Lusotitan, but others disagree.1
