'Othnielia' rex

Published:

Description

Formerly Othnielia, now Othnielosaurus, a basal ornithopod from the Upper Jurassic of North America. Peter Galton renamed the genus because he felt the type was nondiagnostic.

Edit: In addition to a repose and silhouette update, the specimen now reflects data from a somewhat larger specimen in the collections of the University of Wyoming (UW 24823). The uncinate processes are shown as they are preserved in the specimen.

I'm guessing this should now be referred to as Nanosaurus, along with Othnielia and Drinker...
