[edit] Siamosaurus

Were does the artical get the specific length of 9.1m for this anmial, as last i hered it only properly known from teeth? That said theres this artical called 'Asian Spinosaur Confirmed' it sais this about the material found 'The cervical vertebrae resemble those of Baryonyx walkeri in many respects (elongation of centrum, articular faces of centrum not offset, large epipophyses, prominent ligament scars). The dorsal vertebrae are similar to those of Spinosaurus aegyptiacus, with neural spines which are much taller than in Baryonyx (although not as tall as in S. aegyptiacus). A tooth found with the bones belongs to Siamosaurus, but whether it is from the same individual or is evidence of scavenging remains uncertain.' I dont think that there's much more than that? Whats interesting is that it seems that a spinosaur ansestor must have existed which had tall spines as suchomimus, spinosaurus and now this one described here, all have them. thanks Steveoc 86 22:48, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
