New Juravenator paper
To all compsognathids fan,
I've seen that it's out the new paper on Juravenator, the problem (for me)
is that it's in German...:
-Gohlich, U. B., Tischlinger, H. & Chiappe, Luis M., 2006. Juravenator
starki (Reptilia, Theropoda), ein neuer Raubdinosaurier aus dem Oberjura
der Sudlichen Frankenalb (Suddeutschland): Skelettanatomie und
Weichteilbefunde [Juravenator starki (Reptilia), a new theropod dinosaur
from the Southern Franconian Alb (Southern Germany): skeletal anatomy and
soft tissue]. Archaeopteryx Jahreszeitschrift der Freunde des Jura-Museum
Eichstatt, 24: 1-26. (Note that, for what I know, even if the date reported
in the Journal is 2006, it is out now... but I'm not sure).
Abstract in English: We present an anatomical description, photographic
documentation, basic metrical data, and osteological comparision of the
small-sized theropod dinosaur Juravenator starki from the Upper Jurassic of
the Franconian Alb. Although discovered in 1998, the exquisite skeleton of
this dinosaur, the second known theropod from the Franconian Alb after the
famed Compsognathus, remained under preparation for several years. The
systematic position of Juravenator, its relationship to other theropods,
and its enviromental and taphonomical contexts are also briefly discussed.
The most recent investigations of the soft tissue of the fossil under UV
light are presented and interpreted.
For what I know, of this journal are not available the pdf.
