Re: stegosaur stuff

I know of _Wuerhosaurus_ (EK, China) and indeterminate material from the

The African and European stegosaur material is nothing great; but at it at least documents the survival of the group past the Jurassic.


_Paranthodon_ is of either Late Jurassic or Early Cretaceous age (I'm not sure if the stratum that yielded the _P. africanus_ material has been dated accurately).

From the Early Cretaceous of England comes _Craterosaurus_
(?=_Regnosaurus_). Stegosaurid material is also known from the Early Cretaceous of France (_Lexovisaurus_ sp.).
