Zuolong

Zuolong (/ˌtzwoːlʊŋ/) is an extinct genus of tetanurantheropod from the Late Jurassic period of China. The type and only species is Z. salleei. The generic name of Zuolong is in honor of General Zuo Zōngtáng (also known as "General Tso") with the Chinese word "long" which means dragon. The specific epithet "salleei" is in honor of Hilmar Sallee, who funded the expedition which led to the specimen's discovery.
