The level of detail is outstanding and in reviewing it I find it hard to be critical of anything. I suppose if you look really carefully and close up you might just make out one of the join lines. Perhaps the sail would have been better a different colour – who knows such details are just guess work. One of the feet isn’t flat to the ground but it doesn’t matter as it stands up fine by itself. In fact I like the pose of this dinosaur and like the fact its made well enough not need the tail on the floor to hold it up. Common garden snails have a top speed of 45 m (50 yards) per hour. Making the snail one of the slowest creatures on Earth.

Regarding its phylogenetic placement, we recovered ML1190 in a similar position as the one recovered by Arden et al., 2019 [ 44], with the characters in the dentary, pubis, and caudal vertebra allowing us to differentiate ML1190 from both Baryonyx and Suchomimus. In agreement with [ 30] on the basis of dental and vertebral characters ( i. e., small denticles in teeth and longer than tall dorsal vertebrae), we favor an affinity between Iberospinus and the baryonychines rather than the spinosaurines. In a similar manner we could not recover Vallibonavenatrix as a member of Spinosaurinae, but characters in its vertebrae ( i. e., the height of the neural spines and neural spines with dorsal extension above the level of the intraspinous ligaments) might point towards an affinity to spinosaurines, rather than with Baryonychinae. It is also worth mentioning that the scenario recovered by our phylogenetic analysis is relatively similar to that recovered with the use of geometric morphometrics on the premaxilla of spinosaurids, with a “restricted” Baryonychinae including Suchomimus and Baryonyx [ 87].Brink KS, Wu P, Chuong C-M, Richman JM.

The beautiful illustration (above), depicts Spinosaurus hunting the 8-metre-long sawfish (Onchopristis). A partial fossil jaw found in 1975 (MSNM V4047), attributed to Spinosaurus had a vertebra thought to have come from an Onchopristis embedded within it. Although, the vertebra is thought to have become lodged after the Spinosaurus died, it demonstrated that Spinosaurus and this giant prehistoric fish were contemporaneous.

Both lateral sides of the centrum show no traces of pleurocoels or foramina, with some small ridges along the posterior part, a condition also present in the mid-posterior centra of Vallibonavenatrix. The ventral side of the centrum shows a smooth surface; mostly flat and without keels or ridges. In the anterior part of the ventral surface, there is a small anteroposteriorly elongated protuberance, slightly off centered to the right in posterior view, that measures 12 mm mediolaterally and 17 mm anteroposteriorly.

Berkeley: University of California Press; 2004. p. 71–110.A fully grown Velociraptor could grow up to 2m (6.6ft) in length, 0.5m (1.6ft) in height at the hip and weigh up to 15kg (33lb). Proximally the shaft expands anteromedially to posteroventrally, being compressed transversally (82 and 37 mm respectively). The shaft is overall straight (unlike the slightly more medially curved pubis of Ichthyovenator) with a gentle boss on the anterolateral facet of the proximal half of the shaft, referred [ 42] as a mound-like process, interpreted as interspecific variation and herein interpreted as an autapomorphy. From there subvertical longitudinal grooves occupy its dorso-medial aspect, indicating a muscular insertion. Ventral to said boss, also in anterolateral facet, the shaft is concave, forming a shallow and broad longitudinal groove (potentially autapomorphic as it does not appear in Baryonyx, although there is a hint of that feature in the pubis of Ichthyovenator).

The breed was developed by the Romani people in the United Kingdom and Ireland to pull their Vardoes – a beautifully designed wagon that they lived and worked in. In cross-section, the scapular blade is fusiform (eye-shaped) in outline, being more convex laterally than medially, changing ventrally to a more inverted comma-shaped outline. The anterior rim is continuous from the blade to the acromion, with just a gentle curvature. The acromion itself is not very pronounced from the blade, there is no clear acromial ridge along the lateral surface. This contrasts with the pronounced acromion of Suchomimus and the clear angle between the acromion and the blade on other spinosaurids (personal observation). The anterior margin is sharp, which contrasts with the flattened posterior margin of the blade, just dorsal to the glenoid. Body remains of ornithopod dinosaurs known from the area are mainly comprised of teeth, although a distal femur and fragmented caudal vertebrae have been mentioned by several works [ 54, 57, 58]. Part of a maxilla [ 54] from an ornithopod dinosaur was also published. Recently, associated ornithopod material coming from the Boca do Chapim locality was reported, comprising “several vertebrae and chevrons, a rib, pelvic bones, and a phalanx” [ 59].
