Then again, since he also "named" Ceratosaurus willisobrienorum, I doubt it.

(However, his Altispinax lydekkerhueneorum IS more proper in etymological
terms, although not necessarily in taxonomic terms).

The latest I heard from him is that he will be publishing a book in memory
of Sam Welles, later this year (November), which supposedly has 285 B&W
specimen photographs.
