3D Model: Dipterus in 3D Dinopedia
Start a discussion
Dipterus (“Two-winged”) was a remarkable lungfish of the Late Middle Devonian (393–382 Mya), capable of breathing through both gills and primitive lungs. In the latest 3D Dinopedia update:
- Explore its spindle-shaped body (~35 cm long) clad in large cosmoid scales.
- Inspect ribbed tooth plates on the palate, perfect for crushing mollusc shells and crustacean carapaces.
- Watch its robust, fleshy pectoral fins as it “walks” along the shallows while foraging.
Launch 3D Dinopedia to witness Dipterus’s dual-breathing adaptation and its role as a pivotal link between fish and early tetrapods. Dive into Devonian waters today!
