#barremian

Happy 200th Birthday Iguanodon, and Happy Valentine's Day! This iconic European dinosaur, whose fossils have been found in Belgium, England, Germany and Spain dating from around 126-122 million years ago in the Barremian Stage of the Early Cretaceous, is celebrating its bicentennnial birthday this week, and here in what will one day be the Wessex Formation, an amorous pair of I.bernissartensis consisting of a female at the right and a male at the left bond together under a magenta sunset sky as an Istiodactylus passes by.

A quick drawing of Ceratosuchops, one of the two recently described British spinosaurids. 

Baryonyx is a Spinosaurid from England. It evolved a crocodile-like snout for catching fish, as well as large claws on its hands to hook them out of the water! Though smaller than Spinosaurus, the two were closely related.
