Pelorosaurus
Erects Cetiosaurus brevis on dorsal and caudal vertebrae from the Wealden of Tilgate Forest and Cuckfield; interpreted as a gigantic marine reptile, not a dinosaur.

Streptospondylus
Argues Meyer was incorrect in changing the original specific name and creates the combination Streptospondylus rostromajor for what Meyer had called Streptospondylus altdorfensis.
-
Suchosaurus
Original sub-genus erection by Owen, interpreting the material as crocodilian; spinosaurid affinity was not recognized until Milner (2003).
