Dinosaur Genera List corrections #133
Just a brief note to mention that correspondent Graeme Worth discovered that
the Dinosaur Genera List doesn't contain the genus Lewisuchus. This genus was
described in 1972 as a thecodontian and had a brief life as a very primitive
theropod dinosaur in (if memory serves me) Greg Paul's Predatory Dinosaurs of
the World. This makes it fair game for the List, so add as genus #878:
Lewisuchus Romer, 1972*
The asterisk denotes it as presently considered to be non-dinosaurian. Just
what kind of non-dinosaurian archosaur it is remains unclear, as far as I
know.
Also add to the list of South American dinosaur species the corresponding
entry:
Lewisuchus Romer, 1972*
L. admixtus Romer, 1972?
The Dinosaur Genera List is located at this website:

One of these days, as time permits (which it hasn't for a couple of years
now) I'm going to revamp the website. Meanwhile, it enjoys an average of 30
hits per day. Glad to see it's still useful to some people.
