A monumental year in paleontology seeing (in this volume) both Bucklands first scientific description of a dinosaur, Megalosaurus, and Conybeares first validation of long necked Plesiosaurs and scientific reconstructions of Plesiosaurs and Ichthyosaurs.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the monumental year of 1824 in paleontology, where groundbreaking discoveries were made. The image showcases the intricate details of the 1824 Bucklands Megalosaurus jaw teeth, beautifully drawn by Mary Moreland for William Buckland's "Notice on the Megalosaurus or great Fossil Lizard of Stonesfield". This scientific publication, found within Transactions of the Geological Society of London, marked a significant moment in history as it contained both Buckland's first scientific description of a dinosaur and Conybeare's validation of long-necked Plesiosaurs. Mary Moreland, who skillfully illustrated these plates, would later become Rev. Buckland's wife. These precious bones played an essential role in Richard Owen's reconstruction of Megalosaurus for Waterhouse Hawkins' Crystal Palace reconstructions in 1854. It is fascinating to note that this very jaw is still proudly displayed at the Oxford Museum today. As we delve into this illustration from the 19th century, we are reminded not only of its artistic value but also its immense scientific significance. It symbolizes a pivotal moment when our understanding and knowledge about dinosaurs began to take shape. From tooth structure to dentition patterns, every detail captured here contributes to our ongoing exploration and fascination with these prehistoric creatures.
