Archie questions



I have a few questions which I'd like to throw your way, concerning 
_Archaeopteryx_...

1. To which of the specimens was the name _Archaeopteryx oweni_ attached to 
by Petronievics in 1917?

2. Are both _Archaeopteryx macrura_ and _Griphosauus longicaudatus_ - both (I 
believe) coined by Owen in 1862 - invalid names of the London specimen (and 
therefore objective junior synonyms of _A. lithographica)?

3. Can anyone point me to a reference which explicitly rejects the 
validity of _Jurapteryx recurva_ as a distinct species rather than a 
juvenile specimen of _A. lithographica_?

Thanks in advance
