• Lockwood et al. 2021: The skeleton was found asso- ciated with one of the UK’s most complete theropods, Neovenator salerii Hutt et al., 1996 (MIWG 6348; Brusatte et al. 2008). Both individuals were contained, with some overlap, in an area of ~3x6 m. he then curator is confident that the material was associated (S. Hutt, pers. comm. 2021). Some photographs and drawings of the site are included in Supplementary material (Figs S1–S5) and hard copies of other contemporaneous records have been accessioned under MIWG 6344.
