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.
