At 40 centimetres (16 in) long, the skull of Lishulong is larger than any other sauropodomorph from the Lufeng Formation. The cervical vertebrae are very large and elongated; the centrum of the first preserved cervical vertebra (the axis) is 16.3 centimetres (6.4 in) long, and the centrum of the last preserved cervical vertebra (the tenth consecutive bone in the series) is 19.9 centimetres (7. ...

Bones from several similar-sized individuals were incorporated into the skeleton now mounted and on display at the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin; [22] this mount is 12–13.27 metres (39.4–43.5 ft) tall and 21.8–22.5 metres (72–74 ft) long, [23] [24] [25] and would have belonged to an animal that weighed between 30,000 to 60,000 kilograms ...
Sinosaurus was a relatively large theropod by the standards of the Early Jurassic. With the use of virtual skeletal mount, Liang et al. (2024) estimated that Sinosaurus was a large theropod around 5.85 metres (19.2 ft) long with a maximum body mass of 895 kilograms (1,973 lb).
Massopoda is a clade of sauropodomorph dinosaurs which lived during the Late Triassic to Late Cretaceous epochs. It was named by paleontologist Adam M. Yates of the University of the Witwatersrand in 2007.
Jingshanosaurus may have been most closely related to Yunnanosaurus, and has, at times, been included in the Yunnanosauridae. In fact, Dong Zhiming considered Jingshanosaurus possibly a large specimen of Yunnanosaurus. If true, this would make Jingshanosaurus a junior synonym of Yunnanosaurus.
