Now this is very exciting paper!
New Wealden dinosaurs are always very exciting, but what’s more is that the Ashdown Brickworks quarry, where a bunch of the teeth described in the study come from, is so near where I grew up in Hastings.

The fossil hall was chock-a-block with dinosaur skeletons, pretty much all of which are casts of species found in Utah. Giant sauropods, hadrosaurs, and lots of ceratopsians; this museum displays the diversity of dinosaurs like few other places. (3/3)
Rounding out my time in Utah was a trip to the incredible @NHMU, one of the coolest natural history museums I’ve yet had the pleasure of visiting. We got to look around the collections as well as the main fossil hall, and of course I wish there was more time to see it all. (1/3)
Highlights of the collections included the dinosaurs of Cleveland-Lloyd, limb bones from giant ichthyosaurs, and a lot of ceratopsian skulls, such as the holotypes of both Kosmoceratops and Diabloceratops. (2/3)
