Valid names? Or just published-at-the-time names? Because the answer will be different.

[Dan]

Names of the species, you mean? I was going by The Great Dinosaur Hunters and Their Discoveries by Edwin Colbert.

That's what my source says, yes. Well done.

By the way, if anyone wishes to contest any of these or offer suggestions, feel free to PM me. I never intended to create something overly competitive or complicated.

Is the Suchomimus really a classic WS dino? They came out the same year as the Dunkleosteus.

Unless you meant classic as in, done in their original, not-so-great WS style.

[Dan]

Also correct. Want a prize?
