High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Chingkankousaurus (named for the Ch`ing-kang-kou village) is the name given to a fossilized bone fragment (specimen number IVPP V636) that probably belonged to a theropod dinosaur from the late Cretaceous Period Wangshi Series of Shandong province in eastern China. It was identified by Yang Zhongjian (C.C. Young) in 1958 from a single "scapula", which he said "basically resembles that of Allosaurus but is smaller." Molnar et al. (1990) thought the scapula may have belonged to a tyrannosaurid. However, the piece of bone Young thought to be a scapula was in actuality a piece of rib. Chure (2001) assigned it to the Coelurosauria. Most paleontologists today do not consider it identifiable beyond the fact that it belonged to some type of theropod. The type species is C. fragilis.
