Info

The Cretaceous Fossil Vertebrates volume of 1999 contains an article on English nodosaurs in which Suberbiola and Barrett find that Anoplosaurus is a diagnostic nodosaur taxon most closely related to Silvisaurus condrayi and Texasetes pleurohalio. Anoplosaurus major is based on a ankylosaur cervical vertebra and three ornithopod caudal centra. It was originally part of Acanthopholis stereocercus.
