<< review queue entry 62276 - submitted by 'sl89' >> 沧龙属 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%BB%84%E9%BE%8D%E5%B1%AC 沧龙科 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%BB%84%E9%BE%8D%E7%A7%91 Mosasaurus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosasaurus Mosasaur https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosasaur 现在，因为沧龙-巨蜥的祖先-是蛇进化时周围唯一的海洋蜥蜴，所以蛇应该是从在陆地上生活的蜥蜴进化而来。 Now, because the mosasaurs– the monitor lizards' ancestors–were the only marine lizards around when snakes evolved, snakes must have evolved from lizards living on land. 另一些科学家认为蛇由沧龙进化而来，沧龙是生活在一亿四千四百万年前至六千五百万年前的一种巨型水生蜥蜴。 And others believed that snakes evolved from the mosasaurs, giant swimming lizards that lived 144 to 65 million years ago. 沧龙地牙齿很适合刺穿猎物皮甲，但却没有咀嚼功能，因此一旦大洋龙捕捉到黄昏鸟，便会整个吞掉。 Mosasaur teeth are good at piercing the skin of their prey but bad at slicing flesh. So once halisaurus has caught its prey, it swallows it. 一些古鹦鹉螺化石有牙齿痕迹，看起来这些痕迹似乎由一种称为沧龙的巨大的肉食性海生爬行动物造成。 Some ammonite fossils have tooth marks that look as though they were made by huge reptilian predators called mosasaurs. ---------------------------------- Editor: I don't think 沧龙 is "mosasaurus". Mosasaurus is the name of the genus. (滄龍屬（學名：Mosasaurus）是滄龍科的一個屬。) I think 滄龍 is "mosasaur". That's how you refer to the individual animals in English. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mosasaur As for 滄龍科, the 科 indicates that it's a taxonomic family. As your second reference says, the name of that family is Mosasauridae. (科： 滄龍科 Mosasauridae) |
