Taxonomy from Fossilworks.org. Synonyms: Perleidus eurylepidotrichia Liu 2002, Perleidus yangtzensis Su 1981. From the sediments of the Lower Qinglong Formation, a number of species (Plesioperleidus, Zhangina, Suis, Jurongia, Quingshania, Peia .. ) have been described, which are difficult to distinguish at first sight and are usually traded either as "Plesioperleidus" or as "Lepidotes". Diagnosis for Zhangina yangtzensis (Su, 1981): "Maxilla relatively short and broad, length of its post-orbital part approximately 2/ 5 of the maxillary length; scales well ornamented with ridges and their hinder margin serrated." Line drawing from Jin et al. 2003, p. 177: Identified by oilshale based on the head bones and the characteristic serrated and ornamented scales. References: D.
