Kwanasaurus had a very deep and strong upper jaw (maxilla), much thicker than any other silesaurid.1

Its teeth were leaf-shaped with thick ridges on the tongue side, similar to some early armored dinosaurs.1

Kwanasaurus had 12 teeth in its upper jaw and 14 in its lower jaw, and the middle teeth were the biggest.1

It lived about 215 to 207 million years ago, during the Norian stage of the Late Triassic.1

Kwanasaurus was the northernmost silesaurid ever found in North America.1

Its skull bones had ridges and bumps, suggesting it ate tougher plants than its relatives.1

Kwanasaurus was named in 2019 by scientists Jeffrey Martz and Bryan Small, honoring paleontologist Bill Parker.1 2
