Cited by genera

• Bellusaurus

  Treats Bellusaurus as juvenile mamenchisaurid-grade form.

• Cetiosauriscus

  Echoes the non-neosauropod eusauropod (near Omeisaurus) reading of Moore and colleagues (2020) without independently re-analyzing Cetiosauriscus.

• Daanosaurus

  Treats Daanosaurus as a juvenile mamenchisaurid-grade form under its favored analysis.

• Fushanosaurus

  Reassessed mamenchisaurid anatomy, finding Fushanosaurus's purported titanosauriform features broadly distributed

• Mamenchisaurus

  Re-assessment of M. sinocanadorum on holotype IVPP V10603; recovers Mamenchisaurus as non-monophyletic but withholds taxonomic action pending re-evaluation of the type species.
