Bashanosaurus
Bashanosaurus was an early plated dinosaur that walked on four legs and ate plants. It had rows of bony plates and spikes on its back and tail, which it may have used to scare away hungry meat-eaters.1

Its fossils were discovered in 2016 in a dinosaur quarry in Chongqing, China, and scientists named it in 2022.21
Bashanosaurus had a mix of features from early armored dinosaurs and more advanced stegosaurs, like a flared shoulder blade and tall stalks on its back vertebrae.2
The name 'primitivus' means 'primitive' because this dinosaur is one of the earliest branching stegosaurs.21
Bashanosaurus lived during the Middle Jurassic, about 167 to 164 million years ago, in a semi-arid environment with red mud and siltstone.21
Only a partial skeleton of Bashanosaurus has been found, including a back vertebra, tail bones, shoulder bones, leg bones, and armor plates.2
