The Further Study Of Mamenchisaurus Hochuanensis

1) Mamenchisaurus Hochuanensis is one of the most famous sauropoddiscovered in Hochuan, Chongqing and preserved in Museum of Chengduuniversity of Technology, which is the "greatest treasures". The paper werestudy the specimen of Mamenchisaurus Hochuanensis again and based onthe propose restore of science. The thesis look back on the history ofresearchers and check the absent of type specimen, such as, skull, teeth,caduall vertebrae, forelimb and hind foots and so on. The missing ingredientaffects recovery accuracy of the bones skeleton, thereby affecting therecovery and recycling of its shape, which is MamenchisaurusHochuanensis has been the lack of strict scientific of accurate recovery printor sculpture. This research is focus on the known specimen which the tyoespecimen and the Zigong specimen, they has a better skeleton of skull. Weobtained the consequences: the high-length of skull is moderately, doublenostril, lateral openings and a larger, which is different from skull shaped ofDiplodocus is a low, single nostril, the top position The teeth shape ofHochuan specimen is spoon. rather than nails; The complete caudal about50, according infer, the holotype should be increased by2meters, about24meters The thesis describe the legs and analyzes of the skeleton, andsupplementary the muscles which accord the crocodiles and aves upon thearticular. Surfaces That provide more reliable recovery The conclusion ofthe thesis are:1) pale-animal recovery is a combination of art and sciencewhich is the basic, but also a fundamental requirement.2)the recovery stepare: bone repair-skeleton recovery-muscle add-posture analysis-skinreconstruct, the front step is the basic for next step, and impassable.3)Thevertebrate morphology and comparative anatomy are basic guidance ofrecovery the dinosaurs and other pale-animals. The research shall have enough knowledge about osteology. With the following and work step, theauthor completed the recovery of Mamenchisaurus Hochuanensis.
