Dong Zhiming
"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".
