specimen. The dentary ramus is transversely thick and deep posteriorly at the point where its surface is abruptly truncated. The anterior one third of the dorsal edge of the dentary ramus slopes quite markedly toward the symphysial region; the external (buccal) surface of the ramus has a pronounced, but diminishing, longitudinal bulge that would have formed a ledge, flooring a buccal (cheek) recess, with the posterior cheek teeth positioned along the medial edge of the dentary. At its midpoint along the length of the jaw the dentary ramus appears to be distorted by crushing (many minor fractures and evidence of post-mortem crushing are visible). Toward the symphysis, as the dentary continues to taper, the ramus becomes generally narrower and develops a slight lateral overhang as the lower edge of the dentary twists medially toward its neighbour. The external surface of the ramus is marked by several foramina but, in general, the surface of the dentary is not well preserved and shows few of these more minor anatomical details.

A deeply incised Meckelian groove is clearly present (again contradicting Simmons’ original description) and extends almost to the dentary symphysis, but is obscured by a combination of the overlying bones and infilling matrix more posteriorly. The dentary symphysis, which is only separated by a short section of dentary ramus from Meckel’s groove, is marked by horizontal ridges and grooves, and, in the adjacent area near the tip of the jaw and in advance of the first alveolus, there is very little evidence for, or indeed room for, an ornithischian predentary [a broadly similar configuration is also found in the basal thyreophoran

(SCRM & RJB, pers. observ.]. The ventral edge of the dentary is twisted medially in the proximity of the symphysis, creating a very slightly spout-shaped region to the dentary adjacent to the symphysial region, as observed in ornithischians generally. The lingual wall of the dentary above the Meckelian groove slopes buccally (dorsolaterally) toward the base of the alveolar trough. There is no evidence of an alveolar parapet that supported the lower and medial portions of the dentition (

The posterior part of the dentary is clearly thick and deep, and hints at the presence of an at least modest coronoid eminence, but there is no clear evidence of sutures for the attachment of the postdentary bones.

; however, it must be emphasized that the dentition, as preserved, is heavily eroded and almost completely lacking in detail. The alveolar count of 18 is confirmed, as is the general cadence in tooth size: smaller anteriorly, increasing in size posteriorly before decreasing again in size at the extreme posterior end of the series. The teeth have subcylindrical roots that clearly expand (mesio-distally) into the base of the crown; it is clear from the close packing of the roots of the teeth that the crowns would have been arranged in an overlapping ‘en echelon’ pattern as reported by Simmons. The crowns themselves are heavily eroded and their structure and pattern of wear are not discernible (despite the description provided by both Simmons and Lucas). A single replacement crown tip is visible on the medial surface of alveolus 17 and reveals the presence of coarse denticulations along the mesio-distal margin of the crown; a fragment of replacement crown is present medially in alveolus 1, and a splinter of enamel lies medial to the root of the tooth in alveolus 4 (and might therefore represent the position of the replacement crown). A considerable amount of matrix is still present in the alveoli and around the bases of the much-eroded functional teeth, so the specimen might benefit from either further skilled preparation or non-invasive (computerized tomography, CT) scanning.

The bones attached to the medial surface of the dentary are poorly preserved and their identification is necessarily tentative. There appear to be two bones: one oblique and somewhat slender, which is crushed up against a vertically orientated somewhat more ‘blocky’ element. The former element has a slightly convex distal articular surface and a rounded shaft that has a sinuous ridge and is tentatively identified as a partial quadrate (
