In Depth
Datonglong is a genus of hadrosauroid dinosaur that lived in China during the late Cretaceous. Unfortunately not much is known about this genus because only a jaw is known, however the teeth are noted as attaining lengths of up to five and a half centimetres.
Datonglong should not be confused with the predatory dinosaur Datanglong.
