Lot no. 623
Allosaurus Jimmadseni (Dinosaurier)
Maße inkl. Sockel: 200 x 458 x 80 cm.
Gewicht: 200 kg.
Washakie County/ Wyoming, USA, Oberjura, 148-154 Millionen Jahre alt.
Dramatisch aufgerichtet, als ob er sich aus seinem irdischen Gefängnis befreien würde, bestimmt dieser Allosaurus den Raum mit seiner geheimnisvollen bedrohlichen Präsenz als Dinosaurier. Der Allosaurus (griechisch für andersartige Echse) war eines der wildesten Raubtiere der Jurazeit und konnte eine Größe erreichen, die mit der des Tyrannosaurus Rex vergleichbar war. Er gehörte zur Unterordnung der Theropoda: zweibeinige, fleischfressende Dinosaurier, die mehr als 150 Millionen Jahre lang die Erde beherrschten.
Dieser Allosaurus mittleren Alters, der in einem paläontologischen Labor restauriert wurde, war zwischen 22 und 28 Jahre alt und ist zu bemerkenswerten 65% vollständig. Erg. (†)
Anmerkung:
Die Erstbeschreibung erfolgte 1877 durch Othniel Charles Marsh, welcher der Gattung ihren Namen gab, da die Anatomie der Wirbelknochen zu den bereits bekannten Dinosaurierwirbeln differierte.

Allosaurus Jimmadseni (dinosaur)
Dimensions incl. base: 200 x 458 x 80 cm.
Weight: 200 kg.
Washakie County/ Wyoming, USA, Late Jurassic, 148-154 million years old.
Raised dramatically as if breaking free from its earthly prison, this Allosaurus commands the space with its mysterious menacing dinosaur presence. The Allosaurus (Greek for different lizard) was one of the ferocious predators of the Jurassic period and could grow as big as a Tyrannosaurus Rex. It belonged to the subgroup of theropods: two-legged, carnivorous dinosaurs that ruled the earth for more than 150 million years. This middle-aged Allosaurus, restored in a paleontological laboratory, was between 22 and 28 years old and is a remarkable 65% complete. Mended. (†)
Notes:
This was first described in 1877 by Othniel Charles Marsh, who named the species because the anatomy of the dorsal vertebrae differed from other already known dinosaur vertebrae.
