Summary

Description
English: Vectidromeus is an ornithopod from the Early Cretaceous, and one of many dinosaurs recently discovered in the Isle of Wight in England. It was a small, nimble, bipedal herbivore. It is closely related to Hypsilophodon, but has slight differences in the hips and femur, as described in the type specimen. Vectidromeus is considered the only other genus in the group Hypsilophodontidae, and is a few million years older than Hypsilophodon.
