Re: Wellnhoferia grandis valid?
Hi Mark,
"Just wondering if the 6th specimen of Archaeopteryx (Solnhofen) can be
assigned to a different genus,in the case, Wellnhoferia grandis Elzanowski,
2001."
In the opinion of Elzanowski, it obviously can be, and has been. For what
it's worth, the curator of the Burgermeister-Müller-Museum in Solnhofen has
accepted the revised diagnosis. I was lucky enough to spend a couple of
hours with him in the museum in December. The specimen's labelled as
Wellnhoferia.
Of course, other people may see things differently.
