Could the _Zanclodon/Megalosaurus/Newtonsaurus cambrensis_ jaw 
be a British dilophosaur? I know this was addressed recently by Oli 
Rauhut and Axel Hungerbuhler but, seeing as we now have Mr 
Pickering on the list, might be interesting to hear fresh comments.

I might add that I've been looking at this specimen myself for a certain 
project.
