List of Asian dinosaurs
This is a list of dinosaurs whose remains have been recovered from Asia excluding the Indian Subcontinent, which was part of a separate landmass for much of the Mesozoic. More dinosaurs have been discovered in Asia than any other continent so far. This list does not include dinosaurs that live or lived after the Mesozoic age such as birds.
