So this is why Minmi is a nomen Dubium?

So this is why Minmi is a nomen Dubium?

It sounds like, as happens frequently, the material was originally assumed to belong to Minmi, but is now recognized as distinct.

The nomen dubium issue may have more to do with the material upon which Minmi was described.

Its just like the fact that Minmi was one of the Dinosaurs i actually grew up with. and to learn it was something different.  now i know how those who grew up with monoclonius and Trachodon feel.
