Dinocephalosaurus
It's a protorosaur, not a dinosaur, but it's a really neat critter
reported in this week's Science and on the web at
http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99996441
Protorosaurs are near the base of the archosaurs, but the exact
relationships are controversial. They may have other links as well,
and they're now getting more of the attention they deserve. I don't
think we're going to hear the last of this.
