Vectidraco

名字的意思： “dragon from the Isle of Wight”1
吃：魚飛行爬蟲類白堊紀早期嚴格來說不是恐龍

Vectidraco was a small flying reptile that lived in the Early Cretaceous period. It had a wingspan of about 75 centimetres (2.5 feet), which is as wide as a big umbrella. It flew over the seas near what is now the Isle of Wight in England.12

趣味知識

1

Vectidraco was discovered by a girl named Daisy Morris and her family on a beach in 2008.2

2

Its name means 'dragon from the Isle of Wight' because it was found there.1

3

Vectidraco is known only from a partial pelvis and some vertebrae, so scientists are still learning about it.2

4

It lived about 125 to 119 million years ago, during the Early Cretaceous period.3

5

Vectidraco was a small pterosaur, with a wingspan of only 75 centimetres (2.5 feet).12

6

It belonged to a group called azhdarchoids, which includes some of the largest flying animals ever.2

關於 Vectidraco 最常被問的問題

?Was Vectidraco a dinosaur?

No, Vectidraco was a pterosaur, a flying reptile that lived at the same time as dinosaurs but is not a dinosaur itself.14

?How big was Vectidraco?

Vectidraco was very small for a pterosaur, with a wingspan of about 75 centimetres (29.5 inches) and a total length of about 35 centimetres (13.8 inches) from snout to tail, similar in size to a large crow or a gull.154

?What did Vectidraco eat?

Scientists think Vectidraco was toothless and probably ate small animals or insects, like other azhdarchoid pterosaurs, but no one knows for sure because only its pelvis and some vertebrae have been found.15

Vectidraco was discovered by the Morris family on the Isle of Wight in 2008. It was named and described by scientists Darren Naish, Martin Simpson, and Gareth Dyke in 2013.2
仍有爭議
Scientists are not sure exactly how Vectidraco is related to other pterosaurs, because only a few bones have been found.2
