These remains were described by British paleontologists Alan J. Charig and Angela C. Milner in 1986 as the holotype of a new species, Baryonyx walkeri. After the discovery of Baryonyx, many new genera have since been described, with the majority from very incomplete remains. However, other finds bear enough fossil material and distinct ...
Baryonyx, a large theropod, was found with fish scales in its stomach, indicating that it may have been a piscivore. Suborder Theropoda ("beast foot", bipedal carnivores) Aristosuchus pusillus, a compsognathid; Baryonyx walkeri: Teeth are common on the Island. Hand bones have also been found. Ceratosuchops inferodios [9]
Her primary work was early tetrapods, the subject of her doctorate. Her most significant scientific work was on description of the fossilised remains of Baryonyx walkeri, a fish-eating dinosaur. [2] This was found in a clay-pit in Surrey and was the most complete dinosaur skeleton identified in the UK to that date.
