科学家在巴西发现最大恐龙化石

Brazilian scientists on Wednesday announced the discovery of the largest dinosaurs ever found in the country, an animal that was 25 meters long.

巴西科学家于周三宣布发现国内最大恐龙化石,长25米。

The dinosaur, named "Austroposeidon magnificus," belonged to the group of titanosaurs, which were herbivorous dinosaurs with a well-developed body, a long neck and tail and a relatively small skull, according to scientists at Rio de Janeiro’s Earth Sciences Museum.

根据科学家在里约热内卢的地球博物馆宣布的消息,这种恐龙名为"Austroposeidon magnificus",属泰坦巨龙属,是食草性恐龙,体型较大,颈部和尾部较长,头颅小。

It is believed that these dinosaurs lived during the Cretaceous Period (145-66 million years ago) in regions that are currently part of South America, Africa, Antarctica and Oceania.

据说这些恐龙生活在白垩纪(1.45亿-6600万年前),目前为南美,非洲,南极洲和大洋洲的部分地区。

Fossilized vertebrae of the dinosaur was found in the 1950s by Brazilian paleontologist Llewellyn Ivor Price, who died in 1980 without being acknowledged for this discovery.

恐龙化石的脊椎骨由巴西古生物学家卢埃林艾弗在20世纪50年代发现,他于1980年去世,他的这一发现还没有被认可。

Since then, the fossil had been analyzed and studied until the discovery was finally announced on Wednesday.

此后,人们对化石进行了分析和研究,直到周三这个发现才最终公布。
