"I just received a copy of the book:

Zhou, S. 2005. The Dinosaur Egg Fossils in Nanyang,
China. China University
of Geosciences Press, Wuhan, 145 pp.

...and among all the eggs, it mentions (and pictures)
mounts of two
dinosaurs whose names are unfamiliar: _Bakesaurus_
(no species name given;
appears to be an iguanodontian, probably a hadrosaur;
other bones referred
to as "hadrosaurid" are figured in the book) and
_Yunxiansaurus
hubei_, a
sauropod. Both from the Majiacun Group, Lijiangou,
Xichuan Basin. The book
also discusses _Nanyangosaurus_ a bit; all the stuff
in the book appears to
be Late Cretaceous. _Tyrannosaurus luanchuanensis_
also gets mentioned
occasionally. Except for the preface, table of
contents, and some figure
captions, the text is entirely in Chinese, so I have
not been able to ferret
out references for _Bakesaurus_ or _Yunxiansaurus_ in
the book, and Google
turns up nothing, either."

If one goes to
http://www.cug.edu.cn/en04/info/list.asp?id=422, there
is a
picture of several mounted dinosaur skeletons. Has
anyone on the list been to
CUG? If so, might some of these match the mysterious
names given in the book?
Also, the website mentions a 'Manchousaurus'. This too
is unfamiliar to me.
Thanks,
Andrew McDonald
