Wannanosaurus ("Wannano lizard", named after the Province in China, where it was discovered) was a primitive pachycephalosaurian dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous Period of China, about 80 million years ago (mya).
It was a bipedal homalocephalid (like Homalocephale), sharing the characteristic of a flat-topped, thickened skull.
It may have been a herbivore, grazing on low lying plants and living in a herd.
