Metriacanthosaurus edit

Contra Weishampel et. al. (2004), Metriacanthosaurus does not come from the Corallian Oolite Formation, but instead comes from the Weymouth Member of the Oxford Clay Formation as correctly stated by every author concerned with the Oxford Clay fauna (Benson and Barrett 2009).
