"What dinosaurs name means "near
lizard"
And Camptosaurus is clled bent lizard because it's thigh bone is
curved for some reason. I don't remember.
Anchisaurus, I believe.

Wow, tough trivia.
1) Umm, I know the first chinese dinosaur named! I'm not sure it was
the first ever found.(Chinese diggers probably found dinosaurs several
thousands of years ago) It's Mandschurosaurus! It's name means
"Manchurian lizard" because it was discovered in the far Northwestern
part of China, also known as Manchuria.

"1. This one was a little confusing I
guess, I reread it and saw how it was not as clear as I thought, the
answer was about 90 feet for three pteranadons lined up wing to wing."
Yes, I'd agree that it's a little confusing T - Master. Did you mean
P. Sternbergi or P. Ingens? When "pteranodon" is mentioned, I
automatically think of the smaller P. Ingens, (don't ask why,) with a
wing span of about 7m. (Dunno about feet, I just multiplied 21 by
three, and the result would be roughly 60 feet.) Of course, it would
probably be different for the larger P. Sternbergi, it could almost
certainly reach wingspans of 9m!

Yay! Trivia!
1) What was the first dinosaur ever found in China? And what was it
called when it was found?
2) Which dinosaur's name means "near lizard?"
3) Why was camptosaurus called "bent lizard?" And why is that not such
a good name for it now?

Since there are less people here now, we
don't really need so many forums I think. The science forum is taking
up bandwidth, when I think that at the moment we could do just fine
with dinotalk and vote for your favourite dinosaur. I think that the
scince forum should be suspended, (I'm only saying this with this
site's best interests at heart,) until perhaps the boards are as busy
again as they used to be. If that ever happens. Who else thinks so?
What do you think JC? The science forum was asked for at the height of
this site's popularity, and now it's not really needed so
much.

Let's see what the others want. JC
Since very few sauropod skulls (for the
ammount of sauropods that have been found) have been found, and only
the skull of quaesitosaurus has been discovered, I think that
quaesitosaurus may well not be a dinosaur, since the skull probably
belongs to another sauropod!

da masta: Nurosaurus is a Sauropod from Asia. It's been mentioned in some Chinese Paleontology magazines, but
it's never been formally described. It's supposed to be about 80-85
ft. long. It was discovered by some guy named Dong in 1992, and it's
supposed to have lived in the early Cretaceous.

Gianna, while I was reading your stories,
I noticed you said Barosaurus was a Brachiosaurid. It's actually a
Diplodocid. Just thought it would be benificial for you to know that.
I liked your stories. :)

Come to think of it, CoelurUS is from Wyoming. CoelurOIDES is not from
the U.S.A.

And I don't really know anything about Rigsby's Rex other than what Tim M
said. Sars.

Yay, that means I'm the closest to getting
the trivia right!
I'm just not comfortable with non - metric measurements. Are feet
"imperial" measurement or something?
Actually, I think that Brad's parents don't really want to give all
confidential information on the web, where hackers, etc. can get at
it.

1.Coeluroides has been found in India and
Khasakstan, I don't know about the U.S.A.
2. Leidy described the first species of Aublysodon
3.Cope described all the now invalid species of Diclonius.

Yeah, I wish Brad would come back. He's a fundamental part of this site.
But I'm not sure it's entirely his choice. He might not have the means of
supporting.

T-Master:
The large T-Rex was discovered by Keith Rigby in March 2000. It was
discovered in Montana. It was named Tyranosaurus Imperator, because,
well, it was bigger than other T-Rex fossils.But it has a high chance of
being simply a large T-Rex. Only the Plevis and other fragments of the
Skeleton have been found, but the Pelvis is 15cm longer than
Giganotosaurus' This would mean that T-imperator would be 48 to 52 ft.
long and it would weigh about 9.5 tons.

I also didn't think JP3 was that bad, I
rather liked it. Of course I wasn't jumping for joy when the T-rex was
killed, but that didn't bother me too much.

Here is the answer to my trivia,
1. This one was a little confusing I guess, I reread it and saw how it
was not as clear as I thought, the answer was about 90 feet for three
pteranadons lined up wing to wing.
2. A. Great White Shark toothed Lizard.
3. B. Therizanosaurus.
I just have a question for any one who knows, this isn't trivia, people
have talked about a large t-rex recently found, i think it was nicknamed
rigsby's rex, for a long time now I've been trying to find any
information on it, I remember one person once asked this. I know that it
was pretty long and 15% more massive than giganotosaurus, so if anyone
knows any good website to find this information, or if anyone can just
tell me some stuff about, I would be thankful.

"I just saw Jurassic Park 3 gain for the
third time.
It wasn't as bad as you might think.
I just didn't like the fact that T-rex died and that the raptors were
smarter than humans. The Spinosaurus did look pretty cool, though."
Yeah, what a lot of people fail to realise is that JP3 isn't meant to be
an accurate documentary, it's just a film. I think it was really good,
too. They didn't get the facts WRONG, they never set out to get them
right.

"The Pliensbacian was in the Lias epoch,
therefor in the Jurassic period! *YOU'RE RIGHT! D'OH!* Not the Triassic!
The pliensbachian began about 195 million years ago*YEAH, WELL, SOME
BOOKS PUT EARLY JURASSIC DINOSAURS AS LATE TRIASSIC, AND VICE VERSA. I
THINK IT'S A FORGIVABLE MISTAKE.* , and ended 186 mya, so I don't see how
it could be in the Triassic. You probably meant to say "Jurassic" but you
were typing to fast or something.*I SAID "IT WAS THE ONLY STAGE YOU
MENTIONED WHICH WAS IN THE TRIASSIC," AND THE OXFORDIAN IS IN THE LATE
JURASSIC TOO! (I MEAN IT IS IN THE JURASSIC TOO, I KNOW THAT THE PLEINS.
IS IN THE EARLY JURASSIC!) LATE TRIASS. AND EARLY JURASS. ARE OFTEN
CONFUSED...*"

More trivia, the last I'll be doing in a
while:
1)Where have specimens of Coeluroides largus been found?
*Now all that's left of Diclonius is isolated teeth, which are by no
means adequate to represent a genus! But I think that Cope did describe
them all.*
Wow that was good. And I think that that was just as hard as that trivia
I gave ages ago and everyone was angry because they thought it was too
hard...
*U.S.A! Let me guess - Connecticut and Massachusetts?*
2)Who first described Aublysodon?
*Leidy?*
3) True or false: Edward Cope described each and every species of
Diclonius.

"I don't think anybody is posting because
school(except for Tom G.). I barely have any time to come here too. I
usually come in the morning(like now)."
On weekdays I use the school computers, although it's really annoying
because it attracts a crowd of people who stare at my screen and tell me
how "gay" it is to be interested in dinosaurs, etc.
