Reconstitution des thérizinosauriens de Jehol, illustrant les variations de taille corporelle, de proportions et de stratégies écologiques supposées entre les espèces (de bas en haut) : Lingyuanosaurus sihedangensis représenté dans une posture suggérant une plus grande aptitude à la course. Jianchangosaurus yixianensis représenté en train de se nourrir à l’aide de sa langue. Beipiaosaurus inexpectus présentant une morphologie robuste et moins adaptée à la course et Kayrasaurus changliensis reconstitué en train de brouter de la végétation plus haute, ce qui reflète une plus grande taille et une stratégie alimentaire différente.
A photograph of the skeleton of Jianchangosaurus yixianensis gen. et sp. nov. (41HIII-0308A) (A) and line drawing (B). Abbreviations: at, atlas; ax, axis; cav, caudal vertebra; cv, cervical vertebra; co, coracoid; dc, distal carpal; dv, dorsal vertebra; l., left; f, femur; fi, fibula; fur, furcula; hu, humerus; il, ilium; is, ischium; pu, pubis; ra, radius; sc, scapula; ti, tibia; ul, ulna; mc, metacarpal; mt, metatarsal; mxf, maxillary fenestra; pat, proatlas; r., right; sr, sacral rib; sv, sacral vertebra; ung, ungual. All elements of the skeleton are preserved except the distal half of the caudal vertebrae. Dashed lines of metatarsals indicate areas that have been reconstructed.
