There is also supposedly a paper in the works by Jonathan, Sterling Nesbitt and Alan Turner describing a very interesting and phylogenetically relevant aspect of the skull...<BR/> The new skull reconstruction by Jonathan is pretty cool. He just cleaned up all the individual elements of the holoype skull, which are beuatifully preserved, cast them, and assembled them. They fit together perfectly, and the drawing he did of it came out really well. The new reconstruction is even more big theropod-looking then Chatterjee's 1985 reconstruction, and it isn't hard to see why Chatterjee thought it was related to tyrannosaurs.<BR/><BR/>LNJJeffrey W.
