Unreviewed
Taxonomic remark Junior homonym of Sinosaurus Young, 1948 (dinosaur); replacement name is Neosinosaurus Zhou in Yin & Zhou, 2000. These names are found as Sinasaurus [sic] and Neosinasaurus [sic] in recent literature, but that appears incorrect since if the original spelling were Sinasaurus, the name would not be preoccupied.
