Re: Spinosaurus sail



Is there any possibility that the lack of fused neurocentral sutures is merely an adaptation these animals may have evolved to cope with lateral/anteroposterior stresses placed on the neural spines?<
Well, how much is known of the skulls of either _Suchomimus_ or _Baryonyx_? s there fusion there? I don't see why this wouldn't be possible, considering champsosaurs don't fuse their neural spines.
