Re: New theropod (or is it?) from Poland



The skull of this theropod looks awfully Rauisuchian to me, especially as seen 
in that press release from the other day. What are other's thoughts on this? It 
wouldn't be the first time a Rauisuchian was mistaken for a theropod. Also, are 
these specimens from the same formation as Silesaurus? 

Cheers,
Christopher Collinson
