Qantasaurus

[pwillis@ozemail.com.au (Paul Willis)]

Pat Rich was on the box yeaterday morning announcing a new genus of
dinosaur from Dinosaur Cove. Details are deliberately sketchy at this stage
but it appears to be a small (1 metre high) ornithopod. The holotype will
be an almost complete, articulated skeleton minus the skull (who needs that
anyway?).

I'll keep you posted as more details come to light.

And yse, the name is after the airline (Queensland And Northern Territory
Air Service).

Cheers,

Paul
