Hanyusuchus, el gavial chino.

from Cienciaes.com

En 1630, apareció en la costa este de la isla de Hainan, en el sur de China, un monstruo marino con cabeza de tigre y dos alas, que devoraba a la gente y al ganado. El gobernador ofreció sacrificios de vino y animales para apaciguarlo. Este relato, muy exagerado, se refiere seguramente a un cocodrilo, pero ¿hay cocodrilos en China? Hoy en día, el único cocodrilo que habita en China es el aligátor chino o aligátor del Yangtze (Alligator sinensis), que sobrevive en unos pocos ríos del este del país. Pero es dificil identificar este cocodrilo tímido y dócil, que no pasa de dos metros de longitud, y que se alimenta fundamentalmente de peces y ranas, con el monstruo marino de Hainan. El 9 de marzo de 2022, un grupo de científicos de China y Japón ha publicado la descripción de un nuevo género y especie de gavial, Hanyusuchus sinensis que podría arrojar luz en el estudio de la cultura china antigua.
