Bushizheia yangi is an extinct species of arthropod known from a single specimen found in the Early Cambrian Maotianshan Shales Lagerstätte in China. While it had a superficially trilobite-like bodyform, it also possessed large frontal appendages similar to those of radiodonts. It is morphologically similar to Kiisortoqia to which it is probably closely related.
