Two Hadrocodium who have made their nest in a patch of moss on a tree are rudely disturbed by a curious snakefly. Meanwhile a Tatisaurus has developed a sudden craving for moss.

Tatisaurus oehleri

Name: Tatisaurus oehleri

Name Meaning: Da Di Village Reptile

First Described: 1965

Described By: Simmons

Classification: Dinosauria, Ornithischia, Genasauria, Thyreophora

Tatisaurus is a fragmentary genus of basal Thyreophoran from the Sinemurian age of the Early Jurassic, approximately 199 to 190 million years ago. It is only known from part of the jaw and, after much taxonomic bouncing around, was found to have similarities to Thyreophorans such as Huayangosaurus and Sceliosaurus. It is known from the Lower Lufeng Formation in Yunnan, China, and even though it’s a dubious genus, it is potentially the oldest known Thyreophoran.
