海龙类化石在云南泸西上三叠统的发现
The discovery of Thalattosauria (Reptilia:Diapsida) from the Late Triassic strata of Luxi County, Yunnan Province
摘要
Abstract
This paper reposts a thalattosaur specimen collected from the Late Triassic Xiaowa Formation in Xiaoxingan Village,Luxi County,Yunnan Province.It is the first record of Thalattosauria fossil outside Guanling,Guizhou Province.The specimen consists of 9 well preserved dorsal vertebrae,21 dorsal ribs,and several gastralia.4 dorsal vertebrae are present and arranged as a sequence of natural order.The length of dorsal vertebrae is about 12cm.The transverse process is well developed.The two ends of the dorsal vertebrae are slightly biconcave,distinctly different from ichthyosauria vertebrae with obvious biconcave.The specimen is tentatively assigned to the Thalattosauria.The new discovery provides new information for paleobiographic distribution of the Thalattosauria and the search for new fossil localities of the Guangling biota.关键词
