Re: Eoraptor (Was Re:polyphyodonty in dinosaurs)
Based on Sereno et al.'s figure, the fifth is certainly of standard
theropod design. The second maxillary and fourth premaxillary are most
obviously leaf-shaped. Note the anterior edge expands in the middle of
these teeth, forming a diamond shape.<
Ah hah! I thought leaf shape was suggesting a lack of a curve, and not an
expansion. I see what you're talking about. Thanks for clearing that up.
