In his monograph on the Wealden and Purbeck Reptilia (published in five parts with nine supplements in 1853-79), Sir Richard Owen (1804-92) confirms the distinctiveness of the newly recognised 'Dinosauria', and also reviews the other reptiles then known from these Early Cretaceous faunas, including turtles, crocodiles and lizards.
