     Even though individual segnosaur genera are known from pretty spotty 
remains, if you look at all of them together (especially if you throw in
_Alxasaurus_) we have virtually every part from SOME segnosaur. Greg
Paul's "_Therizinosaurus_" skeletal reconstruction is actually a
composite of a several different segnosaurs, with only the
arms, soulder girdle and legs(?) coming from _Therizinosaurus_
