  "summary": "Omnisaura summary: Antarctopelta, Salgado and Gasparini 2006\n\n- Named by: Salgado and Gasparini 2006 (high confidence: PBDB and Wikidata agree).\n- Order: Ornithischia (medium confidence: only NHM gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Parent group: Parankylosauria (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Age, as published by the Paleobiology Database: Campanian, 83.6–72.2 million years ago (high confidence: PBDB and NHM agree).\n- Age, Omnisaura's own calculation (not a published figure): 83.6–72.2 million years ago (low confidence: Omnisaura's calculation from only 1 dated record(s)).\n- Fossils found in: Antarctica (high: NHM and PBDB both record it).\n- Rock formations: Santa Marta Formation (low: only NHM gives this name and it matches no PBDB formation; awaiting an editor); Snow Hill Island (low: only one PBDB record).\n- Original description: L. Salgado, Z. Gasparini (2006). Reappraisal of an ankylosaurian dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous of James Ross Island (Antarctica). Geodiversitas 28(1): 119–135. (high confidence: PBDB gives this publication for the name; its author and year match the naming authority (Salgado and Gasparini 2006), on which PBDB and Wikidata agree).\n- Diet, inferred by PBDB for the group: herbivore (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this, and it infers it for the whole of Ornithischia, the group this genus belongs to, not from this genus's own fossils).\n- Way of life, inferred by PBDB for the group: ground dwelling, gregarious (low confidence: PBDB infers this way of life for the whole of Ornithischia; behaviour is rarely known for one genus).\n\nNot known or disputed:\n- Formations: sources disagree (NHM says Santa Marta Formation). Awaiting an Omnisaura editor.\n- Type species: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- Family: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- Common names: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n\nNot covered by Omnisaura: size, weight, appearance, or behaviour beyond the way of life PBDB infers for the group. Do not fill these in from general knowledge as if they came from Omnisaura.\n\nCredits (must be shown with any of this): Natural History Museum Data Portal (CC0-1.0); Paleobiology Database (CC-BY-4.0); Wikidata (CC0-1.0)."
