酷東西

趣味知識

Kulindadromeus had three types of feather-like structures on its body, including simple filaments and more complex tufts.1

It also had three types of scales, showing that this dinosaur had a mix of scales and fuzzy coverings.1

Kulindadromeus lived about 168 to 166 million years ago, during the Middle Jurassic, making it the oldest known dinosaur with feather-like structures.2

It was a small, bipedal herbivore about 1.5 meters (5 feet) long, with short forelimbs, long hind limbs, and a long tail.1

The fossils were found in a lake environment, alongside plants, insect larvae, and freshwater crustaceans.1

Scientists think that feather-like structures might have been common in all dinosaurs, not just the meat-eating ones.1

Kulindadromeus is a basal neornithischian, meaning it is an early relative of plant-eating dinosaurs like Triceratops and Parasaurolophus.1

發現: Kulindadromeus was named in 2014 by Pascal Godefroit and colleagues based on fossils found at the Kulinda locality in Siberia, Russia. The site yielded several partial skulls and hundreds of disarticulated bones.4 1
仍有爭議: Scientists are still debating whether the feather-like structures of Kulindadromeus are true feathers or just similar-looking filaments that evolved independently.1
