It also reviews the important fossil remains that are housed in the UK nati onal and private collecti ons; remains that include some of the best preserved and most interesting armour ever found of these animals. The polacanthid taxa recovered from Lower Cretaceous rocks of Europe and the USA are also discussed, along with a new taxonomic (genus) name for the Horsham specimen. [9780992997946]
