电影



The dactillion is a species of carnivorous reptile native to Utapau. The winged four-legged lizard is capable of flight, and the native Utapauns have domesticated the dactillion for use as a mount.
叉鼻飞龙是尤塔帕当地一种爬行类肉食动物。这种长翅膀的四腿蜥蜴会飞。尤塔帕当地人将叉鼻飞龙驯养为坐骑。

衍生宇宙



Dactillions are an ancient species, having plagued the Utapauns as predators in that people's prehistoric climb to civilization.
叉鼻飞龙是一个古老的物种。当尤塔帕人在史前时期向文明社会迈进时，作为一种猛兽，叉鼻飞龙一直侵扰着这个种族。

The winged reptavians are solitary and nomadic. Within a sinkhole, a dactillion could use its limbs to climb along the cliff faces, and use its wings to ride the rising thermals. It would hunt within a sinkhole, feeding on grotto fish, small prey or carrion. When food grew scarce or it was time to seek a mate, the dactillion would fly out to the surface, riding the fierce winds that scoured the featureless plains.
这种长翅膀的爬行鸟是独居动物，喜欢流浪。在天坑内，叉鼻飞龙能用四肢沿峭壁攀爬，能用翅膀借助上升暖气流飘浮。它们能在天坑内捕猎，以窟鱼、小猎物或腐肉为食。当食源枯竭或须要交配时，叉鼻飞龙就飞出天坑，来到地表，在横扫荒芜平原的狂风中飘浮。

It was by studying dactillion migration patterns that the Utapauns were able to better understand the complex weather of their world. The dactillions would leave the sinkholes and fly over the open surface when the winds were at their tamest. It was then that the Utapauns, too, could venture to the surface, to install their mills and other instruments that harnessed the abundant wind power the planet offered.
正是通过研究叉鼻飞龙的迁徙模式，尤塔帕人更好地了解了母星复杂的气候。叉鼻飞龙只有在风力最小的时候才会离开天坑，在开阔的地表翱翔。于是，尤塔帕人也在这个时候去探索地表，安装风车等工具，利用这颗行星丰富的风力资源。

Though the cliff-scrabbling varactyls were the first to be domesticated by the developing Utapauns, dactillions soon followed. By supplying the winged lizards with fresh meat, the Utapauns were able to secure loyal mounts that let them explore the world beyond their sinkholes.
善于攀岩的蜥趾龙是最早被发展中的尤塔帕人驯化的，叉鼻飞龙紧随其后。只要提供足够的鲜肉给这种长翅膀的蜥蜴，尤塔帕人就能驾驭这种忠诚的坐骑飞出天坑，探索他们的世界。

幕后

The dactillions were first envisioned as a Jedi mount on the world of Utapau. As the Episode III story was still developing, the concept model of the dactillion had Ki-Adi-Mundi riding the beast, even though he was not to feature on the planet.
叉鼻飞龙最早被设想为尤塔帕行星的绝地坐骑。在创作《第三部》的剧情时，工作人员制作的叉鼻飞龙概念模型上还坐着基-阿迪-芒迪，尽管他并没有出现在那颗星球上。
