Bayannurosaurus

Bayannur lizard

• Bayannur · Mongolian (place name) · Bayannur, a region in Inner Mongolia, China
• sauros · Greek · lizard

The name appears to combine Bayannur, a city and region in Inner Mongolia, China, with the Greek word for lizard. This would mean "Bayannur lizard" and point to where the fossils were found. I'm not certain of the details of its publication.

I'm not confident about this name's formal status (valid, nomen nudum or other), or about its author, year, age and classification, so I left those fields blank. Please check a specialist database before relying on it.
