Yunyangosaurus was named in 2020, making it a relatively new dinosaur discovery.4
Only one partial skeleton has been found, including eleven back bones and some ribs.2
The fossil was found in the Xintiangou Formation, a rock layer that has not yielded many dinosaur fossils.2
Yunyangosaurus had a combination of features that scientists have not seen in other theropods, like a special shape in its neck bones.2
It was a sub-adult when it died, meaning it was not fully grown.2
