Chuanqilong was an armoured dinosaur that lived in what is now China. It had a triangular skull and its body was covered in bony plates and small knobs for protection. Scientists think it was a young animal, so a full-grown Chuanqilong might have been even bigger.12

Prettige feite

1

Chuanqilong is known from a nearly complete skeleton, missing only the tip of its tail.2

2

Unlike many later armoured dinosaurs, Chuanqilong did not have a club at the end of its tail.1

3

The fossil was found in the Jiufotang Formation, which is about 121 to 113 million years old.3

4

Chuanqilong was a medium-sized ankylosaur, measuring about 4.5 metres (14.8 feet) long as a juvenile.1

5

Its neck was protected by special bands of bony plates called cervical half rings.1

6

Chuanqilong shares many similarities with another Chinese ankylosaur called Liaoningosaurus, and scientists think they might be closely related.12

Ontdekking
Chuanqilong was named in 2014 by Fenglu Han and colleagues based on a nearly complete skeleton found by local farmers in Liaoning, China. The name means 'legendary dragon' in Chinese.12
Steeds omstrede
Scientists are not sure if Chuanqilong is actually a young Liaoningosaurus or a separate species, because the only known specimen is a juvenile.1
