Veterupristisaurus: Old shark lizard.
Milneri: honouring paleontologist Angela Milner
-Veterupristisaurus was a member of the Charcharodontisauridae family from Jurassic Tanzania
-the holotype contains an isolated caudal vertebra, two posterior partially fused middle caudal vertebrae, and an anterior caudal vertebrae. Basically just a bunch of pieces of the spinal column for those who aren’t proficient in anatomical terms.
-these continue to be the only bones found.
-the animal was originally named as Ceratosaurus, but it has been decided they are different animals.
-even though there’s been a lack of bones found, there is no current debate on whether Veterupristisaurus is synonymous with another non-avian dinosaur.
