MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Paleontologists at the UK’s University of Southampton have discovered bones which they believe to be those of a previously unknown species of dinosaur, according to a press release published by the higher education institution on Wednesday.
The bones, which are believed to be from the neck, back, and tail of the dinosaur, were discovered on the foreshore near the village of Shanklin on the UK’s southern island.

The palaeontologists said that the distinctive air sacs in some of the bones helped identify the remains as those of a theropod dinosaur.
The new species of dinosaur has been named Vectaerovenator Inopinatus.
