Some time ago there was a long disussion on the
list about the classification of Oviraptor (I now can't find it in the
archives though). If I remember right among the conclusions to it
were that the creature we normally see illustrated as O. philoceratops is not
really O. philoceratops and that the classification of the genus needs serious
revision. Has anything been done yet/are there papers in the making that
will solve this problem? I'd especially like to know what species those
"brooding" Oviraptors are someday.
