  "summary": "Omnisaura summary: Mochlodon, Seeley 1881\n\n- Named by: Seeley 1881 (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Order: Ornithischia (medium confidence: only NHM gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Parent group: Rhabdodontoidea (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; nothing contradicts it).\n- Age, as published by the Paleobiology Database: Santonian to Maastrichtian, 85.7–66 million years ago (high confidence: PBDB and NHM agree).\n- Age, Omnisaura's own calculation (not a published figure): 85.7–83.6 million years ago (low confidence: Omnisaura's calculation from only 1 dated record(s)).\n- Fossils found in: Romania (low: NHM records it here but PBDB has no record in this country; awaiting an editor).\n- Rock formations: Csehbánya (low: only one PBDB record); Sanpetru Formation, Densus Ciula Formation and Bozes strata (low: only NHM gives this name and it matches no PBDB formation; awaiting an editor).\n- Original description: H. G. Seeley (1881). The reptile fauna of the Gosau Formation preserved in the Geological Museum of the University of Vienna. Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London 37(148): 620–707. https://doi.org/10.1144/gsl.jgs.1881.037.01-04.49 (medium confidence: only PBDB gives this; its author and year match the naming authority (Seeley 1881)).\n\nNot known or disputed:\n- Formations: sources disagree (NHM says Sanpetru Formation, Densus Ciula Formation and Bozes strata). Awaiting an Omnisaura editor.\n- Countries: sources disagree (PBDB says HU; NHM says Romania). 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- Named after: no source Omnisaura uses gives this.\n- 3 fossil record(s) left out because their identification is uncertain.\n\nNot covered by Omnisaura: diet, size, weight, appearance or behaviour. 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)."
