Xenoposeidon

Wikipedia Abstract

Xenoposeidon (meaning "strange or alien Poseidon", in allusion to Sauroposeidon) is a possibly dubious genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous of England, living about 140 million years ago. It is known from a single partial vertebra with unusual features, unlike those of other sauropods. This bone was first discovered in the early 1890s but received little attention until it was found by University of Portsmouth student Mike Taylor, who formally described and named it in 2007 with Darren Naish.
