The remains of ancient dinosaurs that walked the earth continue to surprise scientists and a recent discovery of a fossil in Britain’s Isle of Wight has brought a new species to light. A recent study published in the Scientific Reports on Wednesday has shared its findings after analysing the fossilised remains of a dinosaur, nicknamed “the horned crocodile-faced hell heron.”

The latest research led by palaeontologists at the University of Southampton suggests that the remains of the ancient animal found on the Isle of Wight belong to two new species of spinosaurid, which is a group of predatory lizard-hipped dinosaurs related to the giant spinosaurus. In its official statement, University of Southampton mentioned that the conspicuous, crocodile-like skulls helped the animals expand their diets, allowing them to hunt prey on both land and in the water.

The study also suggests that the bone belonged to species of dinosaurs previously unknown to science. In a statement, lead author of the study and the PhD student at the University of Southampton Chris Barker said, “We found the skulls to differ not only from baryonyx, but also one another, suggesting the UK housed a greater diversity of spinosaurids than previously thought.”
