Panlong: refers to the dragon that crouches on the ground and does not ascend to heaven. The shape of a dragon is coiled. In ancient buildings in China, dragons coiled on pillars and dragons on decorative beams and ceilings are customarily called Panlong. In the "Peaceful Magnolia", there is another explanation for Panlong: "Panlong, four feet long, with blue, black and red bands like brocade, often goes down with the water and enters the sea. Toxic, it hurts. " I mix dragons with jiaozi, snakes and things like that.

Qinglong is one of the "four spirits" or "four gods", also known as the black dragon. Ancient astronomers in China divided some stars in the sky into twenty-eight star zones, that is, twenty-eight nights, to observe the movement of the moon and divide the seasons, and divided the twenty-eight nights into four groups, with seven nights in each group, four colors of blue, red, white and black, and four animals, namely dragons, birds, tigers and basalts (where turtles and snakes intersect), called "four elephants". The dragon represents the east and is blue, so it is called "East Palace Qinglong". In the Qin and Han dynasties, these four images became "four spirits" or "four gods" (dragon, phoenix, turtle and forest), and their mystery became more and more intense. The existing stone relief of the East Palace Black Dragon constellation in Nanyang Han Painting Academy consists of a dragon, eighteen stars and the moon, and is engraved with jade toad. This dragon is the symbol of the whole black dragon constellation. In the bricks, stones and tiles of the Han Dynasty, there are many images of "four spirits".

The third volume of Mo Ke Dao Rhinoceros is more specific: Jiao is shaped like a snake, with a head like a tiger and an elder of dozens of feet. Most of them live under the caves in Xitan, and their voices are like cattle. If Jiao sees pedestrians on the shore or in the ravine, he will entangle them with his mouth and make people fall into the water, that is, suck their blood under his arm until the blood runs out. People on shore and on board often suffer from it. There is a story in Liu Yiqing's Shi Shuo Xin Yu in the Southern Song Dynasty, saying that he went into the water for three days and three nights at the beginning of the week to chop jiaozi back. Jiao may be a crocodile.
Hu (Hu): a kind of dragon, modeled on a reptile-snake, often appears in water. "It takes five hundred years to become a jiaozi, and it takes a thousand years to become a dragon." It is Hualong, which once appeared on bronze decorations in the late Western Zhou Dynasty, but not much.
Qiú: It's a kind of dragon. Therefore, the ancient literature records: "The horn is called autumn, and the horn is called dragon." The other is that the young dragon is called autumn after it has horns. Although there are differences between the two statements. But everyone is called the growing Longqiu.

When you enter and leave the water, there will be wind and rain. Its light is like the sun and the moon, and its sound is like thunder, so it is called Wei Xiao ". But more ancient books say that Wei Xiao is a snake monster. "Hey, God is charming, like a dragon's foot." ("Shuo Wen Jie Zi") "Hey, one foot? Go away. " (Liu Tie) In the bronze decoration in the late Shang Dynasty and the Western Zhou Dynasty, the dragon pattern was one of the main decorative patterns, and the image was mostly a long strip with its mouth open and its tail curled. Its shape is suitable for the structural lines of bronze decorative surfaces, with straight lines as the main part and arcs as the auxiliary part, which has the aesthetic feeling of Gu Zhuo.

In Yu's flood control, the dragon swept the floor with its tail and diverted the flood. This dragon is also called Huanglong, and Huanglong is it, so it is the hero of Yu. Ying Long is characterized by wings, prickly scales, long head, small nose, eyes and ears, big eyes, high eyebrow arch, sharp teeth, protruding forehead, thin neck, long tail tip and strong limbs, just like a Chinese alligator with wings. The image of Ying Long often appears in jade carvings, stone carvings, silk paintings and lacquerware in the Han Dynasty during the Warring States Period. Pterosaur is similar to the "dragon" in English culture.
4. Yu Hualong
Yu Hualong is a dragon with a dragon head and a fish body.
The mysterious "sea monster" body is now on the beach in Spain.
It is also a form of "mutual change of arowana", which has existed for a long time in ancient China. In Shuo Yuan, there is a record that "the white dragon turned into a fish in the cold abyss", and in Chang 'an ballad, "the big fish in the East China Sea turned into a dragon" and the popular carp jumped into the dragon gate, all of which tell the mutual changes of arowana. This kind of modeling appeared in jade carvings as early as the late Shang Dynasty, and it has developed in all previous dynasties.

Dragon (common name: Sinosaurus), which means "lizard of China", is a genus of sauropod dinosaurs, living in the late Triassic or early Jurassic. Dragon fossils were found in Lufeng Formation, Yunnan Province, China. Dragon is a bipedal carnivorous dinosaur. There is not enough information to estimate their height and weight.
Dragon was described by China paleontologist Yang in 1948. Fossils are the upper jaw and teeth. Dragon was originally considered as a coelenterate superfamily dinosaur close to Liang Long. In 2000, Oliver Rauhut proposed that the dragon was a more evolved theropod dinosaur, close to the ice sauropod and Liang Long, China.
The common name of dragon Sinosaurus is easily confused with Sinosaurus.
