In southern Portugal, scientists from the University of Edinburgh have recently found some fossil(化石)remains of a previously unknown species of a crocodile - like “super salamander”.
The species could grow up to six feet in length. It lived in lakes and rivers. It was part of a wider group of primitive amphibians(两栖动物)that were widespread at the time but died out in the end. They are the ancestors of modern amphibians such as frogs. They are believed by scientists to have lived at the same time the dinosaurs began their rule.
Steve Brusatte led the study. He said the new species had hundreds of sharp teeth. It looks somehow “strange” compared to anything today.
Feeding mainly on fish, it was at the top of the food chain. But it's also a danger for newly appeared dinosaurs and mammals that moved too near the water.
The team says the finding confirms that this group of amphibians lived in a more diverse geographic area than had been thought.
The dig began in 2009 and took several years. The “super salamander” bones were discovered in a half - meter thick layer of rock in a hillside. The team hopes to raise funds to continue exploring the site.
20. Where did the species live?(不超过 5 个词)
21. Primitive amphibians lived at the same time the dinosaurs began their rule, didn't they?(不超过 5 个词)
22. To continue exploring the site, what does the team need?(不超过 5 个词)
