_Gasosaurus_ is no coelurosaurian. If the illustration of the pelvis in
_The Dinosauria_ can be trusted, it appears to be a basal carnosaur of
some kind.
Greg Paul suggested that _Proceratosaurus_ was related to _Ornitholestes_
(and hence, in today's parlance, a basal coelurosaur). I know too little
about this animal to be able to comment intelligently.
