In case this news item has not been mentioned...
I don't have the official citation and abstract yet, but 
some international news sources are announcing a new 
alvarezsaurid found in Chinese Inner Mongolia and 
described in Proceedings of the National Academy of 
Sciences (PNAS) online (not yet on the site). It's based 
on a partial skeleton. Most sources are spelling it 
Linhenykus, but a few are using Linhenychus. More details 
as the story develops...
