Re: A new compsognathid



Quoting Marco Auditore:

There is a new paper in the new Journal Of Systematic Paleontology:

Sunny H. Hwang, Mark A. Norell, Ji Qiang, Gao Keqin, 2004, A LARGE
COMPSOGNATHID FROM THE EARLY CRETACEOUS YIXIAN, FORMATION OF CHINA.
Journal of Systematic Palaeontology Volume 2 (Issue 01), 13-30.

It is introduced a new compsognathid, Huaxiagnathus orientalis, known from
a nearly complete skeleton lacking only the distal end of the tail. From a
first view, the skull is very similar to the still unnamed new German
compsognathid. Three finger.

Quoting Mickey Mortimer:
In the current paper, they refer the "Huaxiasaurus" specimen to Huaxiagnathus.

I say: YEA! Another Nomen Nudum down! :-P
