New tote bag design: Crichtonsaurus! Named after Michael Crichton, the author of Jurassic Park & the Lost World!

This species of Late Cretaceous Ankylosaur is actual a Nomen Dubium - meaning it may not be unique enough to be its own genus!

Name: Crichtonsaurus bohlini

Name Meaning: Crichton Reptile

First Described: 2002

Described By: Dong

Classification: Dinosauria, Ornithischia, Genasauria, Thyreophora, Eurypoda, Ankylosauria, Ankylosauridae, Ankylosaurinae

Crichtonsaurus is a dubious genus of Ankylosaurid from the Sunjiawan Formation of Liaoning Province, China, living about 92 million years ago, in the Cenomanian to Turonian ages of the Late Cretaceous. It is known from a lower left jaw, and though other material has been assigned to it, it cannot be definitively assigned to the genus due to a lack of overlapping material, and the jaw itself cannot definitively be said to be different from any other genus of Ankylosaurid. It was probably fairly small, only about 3.5 meters long, though of course that is estimated from only a jaw.

侏儸紀世界：克氏龍

之前介紹過來自白堊紀的三角龍， 今天的主角同樣來自於白堊紀末期 侏儸紀世界：克氏龍 克氏龍 ( Crichtonsaurus )，是甲龍的一種，其名稱是為了紀念小說：侏儸紀公園作者 Michael Crichton，生活於白堊紀晚期，最早的化石出土於中國的孫家灣組地層，生存於距今約1億到9000萬年前的草食性恐龍。 克氏龍身長約三公尺，其下頜骨頭較薄，牙齒有鋸齒邊緣，體型屬於中型的草食性恐龍，至今僅找到部分的骨骼化石。
