(2018) recover Liaoningotitan as a somphospondylan titanosauriform more derived than Euhelopus.[1] PaleoecologyLiaoningotitan is one of two titanosauriforms from the Yixian Formation of Liaoning, the other being Dongbeititan. These two forms co-existed with feathered dinosaurs in the Early Cretaceous lacustrine environment of present-day Liaoning.[1]References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite journal|first=C.-F. |last=Zhou |first2=W.-H. |last2=Wu |first3=T. |last3=Sekiya |first4=Z.-M. |last4=Dong |year=2018 |title=A new Titanosauriformes dinosaur from Jehol Biota of western Liaoning, China |journal=Global Geology |volume=37 |issue=2 |page=327–333 |doi=10.3969/j.issn.1004-5589.2018.02.001}} 3 : Macronarians|Cretaceous dinosaurs of Asia|Fossil taxa described in 2018 |
