Typespecies

Holotype

BMNH R2522, a dorsal vertebrae neural arch. Paratypes consists of BMNH R89 and R90, other refered specimens include BMNH R91, R94, R406, R708, R2523 and R2524.

Eucamerotus was created without a type species back in the 19th century, so Bill Blows, after looking over the material, created the name Eucamerotus foxi for the type partial vertebra.
