The tall neural spines of the three vertebrae of Becklespinax have caused quite a bit of confusion and bewilderment.‭ ‬High spined dinosaurs such as Acrocanthosaurus and Spinosaurus have established the precedent for theropod dinosaurs that have vertebrae with tall neural spines,‭ ‬but the fact that only three vertebrae are known for Becklespinax means that it is difficult to establish what could be called an accurate shape for this dinosaur.‭ ‬To further confound matters other theropods such as Concavenator have a small hump made up of just two vertebrae,‭ ‬which means that the enlarged neural spines of Becklespinax could have been part of a back hump of any size or shape.‭ ‬One thing to note however is that one of the three known vertebrae of Becklespinax is shorter than the other two.‭ ‬When first seen this was thought to have been because of breakage,‭ ‬but it‭’‬s not inconceivable that it may have actually been shorter in life. Another European theropod dinosaur that had enlarged neural spines is Metriacanthosaurus from the Jurassic of England.
