A new hadrosaurid dinosaur,Nanningosaurus dashiensis gen.et sp.nov.,is described based on an incomplete skeleton from the Late Cretaceous red beds of the Nalong Basin,Guangxi,southern China.Diagnostic features for the new taxon include the presence of a tall and sharply peaked dorsal process of the maxilla with reduced process of the jugai and a distinct lacrimal facet,gracile humerus with low,rounded deltopectoral crest,mandibular condyle of the quadrate transversly broad with reduced paraquadrate notch,dentary tooth with sinuous median carina and subsidiary ridge,relatively few tooth positions,ischial shaft straight along most of its distance,but to curve dorsally and expand at the distal end before the ischial foot begins.Phylogenetic analysis suggests that Nanningosaurus dashiensis is a basal member of Lambeosanrinae.
