Angloposeidon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Angloposeidon" is the informal name given to a genus of dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous. It was a possible brachiosaurid, but has not yet been formally named (and Darren Naish, who has worked with the specimen, has requested that this name only be used informally and that it not be published). The remains consist of a couple of fossil vertebrae, which indicate it was a very large animal. The fossils were found in England on the Isle of Wight.
