Ebyewuunyisa

1

Vectipelta is the first new armoured dinosaur found on the Isle of Wight in 142 years.12

2

Its fossils were found near Chilton Chine on the Isle of Wight, first by Gavin Leng in 1993 and then by Lin Spearpoint in 1994.1

3

Scientists used to think these bones belonged to another dinosaur called Polacanthus, but now they know Vectipelta is a different species.12

4

Vectipelta is more closely related to armoured dinosaurs from China than to other English ankylosaurs like Polacanthus.2

5

This dinosaur was named after Paul Barrett, a palaeontologist at the Natural History Museum in London.12

6

Vectipelta lived about 139 to 137 million years ago, during the Early Cretaceous period.6

7

The site where Vectipelta was found, the Wessex Formation, is a very important place for learning about how dinosaurs went extinct.2
