Unenlagia

[tlford@ix.netcom.com (Tracy Ford)]

I got my copy of the Unenlagia article today. What an interesting 
animal. 

But they got something on the shilloutte wrong. The humerous is 
pointing the wrong way. The delta-pectral crest (that bump on the front 
of the humerus) is pointing the wrong direction. If the arm/wing is 
resting or in a down stroke the d-p should be pointing down, but if it 
is in an up wing beat it should be pointing up. The arm is in a resting 
position, so it should be pointing DOWN. I've seen mistake a lot, even 
Marsh had an Ichthyorins drawn this way, then corrected.

It still reminds me of the Madagascarian sickle clawed theropod/bird.

And you can just about make Unquillosaurus to look like Unenlagia.
