Dongyangopelta is one of the only nodosaurid armoured dinosaurs known from Asia, along with Taohelong and Sauroplites.1
Its name means 'Dongyang shield' because it was found near Dongyang City in China and had a shield of fused bones on its hips.1
The pelvic shield of Dongyangopelta was made of many fused bony bumps called osteoderms, arranged in a rosette pattern with larger bumps in the middle.1
Its thigh bone (femur) was 46 centimetres (18.1 inches) long, straight and strong, with a distinct head separated from the greater trochanter.1
Dongyangopelta had thin triangular plates on its body that ranged from 10 to 35 centimetres (3.9 to 13.8 inches) long.1
The fossil was discovered in October 2009 by Zhiwei Yang in a hillside near Yangyan Village, Zhejiang Province, China.1
Dongyangopelta lived during the Early to Late Cretaceous period, about 105 to 96 million years ago.1
