> Ligabueino
also has this? Where was it described?
Although the ungual of Ligabueino is unknown, a
phalanx strongly resembling II-2 of dromaeosaurs and troodontids is preserved
with the holotype. It has the characteristic elongate proximoventral
heel indicative of hyperextendability. It was described in-
Bonaparte, J. Formation, 1996. "Cretaceous
Tetrapods of Argentina," Muenchner Geowissenschaftliche Abhandlungen 30A:
73-130 [April 1996].
Thanks :-) Let's see if I can find
this...

Dandakosaurus is from India (far away from China then)? And
Lukousaurus... didn't someone think it was a crocodylomorph or
something?
Good point about the possibility of India being
far away from China in the Triassic/Jurassic. I don't know much about
paleogeography though.
Lukousaurus has the possibility of being a
crurotarsan or a theropod, as you can read here-
> Gasosaurus?
Maybe it is such a ceratosaur too?
New studies by Currie
(pers. comm. to Holtz 1998, in Holtz 2000) indicate this is a carnosaur,
perhaps a sinraptorid.
Hah! Didn't I know it? Shortly after I
first read of Sinraptoridae years ago, I thought it should include all so-called
carnosaurs from MJ-LJ Asia, based on no evidence and a few opinions on
websites... B-) What a coincidence!
Is Lukousaurus really
Triassic?
