Abstract/Notes | The Iguanodon, as is well known, was discovered by Mantell, who in 1825 named it from odd teeth which had a resemblance to the teeth of the recent Iguana. Many isolated teeth and bores were subsequently found in the Wealden and Lower Greensand beds to which the names of I. anglicum (F. Holl, 1829) and I. mantelli (H. yon Meyer, 1832) were given. It was not, however, until 1851, when Owen described an associated group of bones on a slab of sandstone from the Kentish Hag (Hythe Beds, Lower Greensand) of Maidstone, Kent, which had been discovered by W. H. Bensted in 1834, that the genus was to any extent known. This specimen has become the type of I. mantelli. In 1878 occurred the historic discovery of the skeletons of a number of Iguanodonsin the Wealden beds of Bernissart, near Mons, Belgium. |
