Discussion of this "Project".
- I've now let guests post, but please no rude comments. They'll be deleted immediately.

Please enjoy this selection of animals, it has taken me months to re-organize it and whatnot.

If there are any species I missed, please tell me, thank you! --HoopoeBaijiKite 16:23, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Did you know?[edit]

I know this is random, but did you know? that:

Gigantoraptor was found during my vacation a couple of years ago?
I've found my own fossils in Arkansas?
About eight species of valid dinosaurs were discovered in 1990, the year I was born?
A dinosaur is named after my best friends last name? (Stokesosaurus)
If I was to name a dinosaur, I'd name it Upupimimus ("hoopoe mimic"), a dinosaur found in made up country, Devonshire?

MISSING LINK FOUND!!![edit]

Main article: Darwinius. See that page for references.

Darwinius is a genus of Adapiformes, a group of basal or stem group primates from the Eocene epoch. Its only known species is Darwinius masillae, dated to 47 million years ago (Lutetian stage). The genus Darwinius was named to celebrate Charles Darwin on his bicentenary and the species name masillae honors Messel where the specimen was found.

Reptiles[edit]

Main project: Reptiles

Reptiles, or members of the class Reptilia, are air-breathing, cold-blooded vertebrates that have skin covered in scales as opposed to hair or feathers.

Synapsids[edit]

Main project: Synapsids

(NOTE: I made a simple mistake on the title of the article...)

Synapsids ('fused arch'), also known as theropsids ('beast face'), are a class of animals that includes mammals and everything closer to mammals than to other living amniotes.

Dinosaurs[edit]

Main project: Dinosaurs

Dinosaurs (Greek δεινόσαυρος, deinosauros) were the dominant vertebrate animals of terrestrial ecosystems for over 160 million years, from the late Triassic period (about 230 million years ago) until the end of the Cretaceous period (65 million years ago), when most of them became extinct in the Cretaceous–Tertiary extinction event. The 10,000 living species of birds have been classified as dinosaurs (q.v.).

Birds[edit]

Main project: Birds

Birds (class Aves) are winged, bipedal, endothermic (warm-blooded), vertebrate animals that lay eggs.

Fish[edit]

Main project: Fish

A fish is any aquatic vertebrate animal that is typically ectothermic (or cold-blooded), covered with scales, and equipped with two sets of paired fins and several unpaired fins.

NOTE: incomplete!

Tetrapods[edit]

Main project: Tetrapods

Tetrapods (Greek τετραποδη tetrapoda, Latin quadruped, "four-footed") are vertebrate animals having four feet, legs or leglike appendages.

Mammals[edit]

Main project: Mammals

Mammals (formally Mammalia) are a class of vertebrate animals whose name is derived from their distinctive feature, mammary glands, with which they feed their young. They are also characterized by the possession of sweat glands, hair, three middle ear bones used in hearing, and a neocortex region in the brain.
