Large Sinohydorsaurus. Sinohydrosaurus lingyuanensisgen was a strange looking aquatic reptile with a very long neck that lived 150 million years ago in fresh water lakes in Liaoning Province, China. Sinohydrosaurus translates to "Chinese water dragon." This large specimen is over 21" long and virtually complete (missing only a few digits and claws from the feet) with all four legs, tiny rib bones and even smaller gastralia rib bones and skull with some teeth and some bones that are disacticulated. This superbly detailed reptile is wonderfully preserved in the same position that it was buried 150 million years ago on a 26 x 9" matrix of soft tuffaceous volcanic rock. Estimate Value $3,000 - 4,000
