Fossil excavated in Hyogo 17 years ago turns out to be a new species of dinosaur.
2007年に兵庫県丹波篠山市で恐竜の骨とみられる化石が発掘され、「県立人と自然の博物館」などが調査した結果、1億1000万年前の「角竜」と呼ばれる恐竜の新種であることが分かりました
In 2007, fossils that appeared to be dinosaur bones were excavated in Tanba-Sasayama City, Hyogo Prefecture, and as a result of investigation by the Prefectural Museum of Humanity and Nature, they were found to be a new species of dinosaur called a ceratopsian, dating back 110 million years. I found out that there is.
This new species of dinosaur was named ”Sasaya Magnome saegusai” after Haruo Saegusa, a researcher who was involved in fossil research for many years and passed away a year ago.
Sasaya Magnome Saegusai is characterized by being herbivorous and having a beak.
This month’s fossils will be exhibited at the ”Museum of Man and Nature” from the 4th.
