Eshanosaurus was an early relative of the strange, long-clawed therizinosaurs. It lived about 200 million years ago in what is now China. Only a piece of its lower jaw has been found, so scientists are still debating what it really was.1

The name Eshanosaurus means 'Eshan lizard,' after the region in China where it was found.1
Its species name, deguchiianus, honors Hikaru Deguchi, who encouraged the scientist Xu Xing to study dinosaurs.1
