More Chinese stuff

Yanornis
The English translation of the Chinese Science Bulletin 
Yanornis article is out and the abstract and caption in 
English can be seen at:
http://www.scichina.com/eng.htm
My translations turn out to be a bit clunky, but thanks in 
good part to help from Michael Turton , appear to have 
been accurate on major points.

"Mandarin Duck" oviraptorid
Photos of a new specimen of an oviraptorid (if  I'm not 
mistaken) can be seen at:

I've been too occupied with a freelance contract project 
to try translating the Chinese text in detail. However, 
skimming through the Chinese text I note the 
phrase "'mandarin duck' steal-egg dragon" (huh?)--which I 
am guessing refers to the specimen.
