Wudingloong

Wuding dragon

• Wuding · Place name (Chinese) · Wuding, a county in Yunnan Province, China
• loong · Chinese (pinyin 'long') · dragon

The name appears to combine "Wuding", a place in Yunnan Province, China, with the Chinese word "loong" (long), meaning dragon. This follows the common pattern of naming Chinese dinosaurs after a locality plus "dragon". I am not certain of the original publication details, so I have left them blank.

I am not confident about the author, year, age or taxonomic details of this genus, so those fields are left empty. The etymology is inferred from the name's components, not from a source I can verify. Please check the original description.
