VERIFY:period_start_mya: stored=130 suggested=126 confidence=high — Current astrochronology dates the base of the Barremian at 125.98 ± 0.21 Ma, so a 130 Mya start falls in the Hauterivian and predates the taxon's Barremian–early Aptian range; the Brighstoneus description likewise places the base of the Barremian in the Wessex Formation at about 126.5 Ma.

VERIFY:period_end_mya: stored=125 suggested=121 confidence=medium — The top of the Barremian is now dated at 121.40 ± 0.34 Ma, and Mantellisaurus material extends into the early Aptian, so a 125 Mya end date is based on the superseded ~125 Ma Barremian–Aptian boundary.
