Sonidosaurus

Sonidosaurus (meaning "Sonid lizard", after Sonid, the large geographical area that includes the type locality) is a genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It was a titanosaur which lived in what is now Inner Mongolia. The type species, Sonidosaurus saihangaobiensis, was described by Xu, Zhang, Tan, Zhao, and Tan in 2006. It was a small titanosaur, about 9 meters (30 ft) long. It was first discovered in the Saihangaobi, Iren Dabasu (Erlian) Formation, in 2001 in a quarry which would later yield the remains of Gigantoraptor.
