Megacervixosaurus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Megacervixosaurus" (meaning "big neck lizard") is the informal name given to an as yet undescribed genus of herbivorous dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It was a sauropod which lived in what is now China. The type species, "Megacervixosaurus tibetensis", was coined by Chinese paleontologist Zhao Xijin in 1985.

"Megacervixosaurus" may have been a diplodocid, but it has never been formally described, and remains a nomen nudum.
