journalist, too.  The museum which acquired the new Albertosaur is the same
one who is holding the birds origin conference, which is displaying
Bambiraptor.  Us here on the list now know this find more closely as
"Linsterosaurus," obviously named after the LINSTER family, who also found
this Albertosaur in Montana.  So, I am sure that the journalist was looking
over a bunch of info on the museum's conference and the Linster family
finds-which seem to number many-and simply got things confused.  Well, this
in turn confused me.  Sorry for all of the confusion I have caused!

Does anybody have a museum number and an idea of what material was found on
this "Albertosaur"?  I would like to add it to my list.  As soon as I
finish processing the info I just got from the Royal Tyrrell, my list of
specimens will contain pretty much all of the tyrannosaurid specimens
available (excepting any REALLY new ones).

Incidentally, the list from the Tyrrell does not list genera, only that
they are Tyrannosauridae, the specimen number, and material.  I think it
also includes casts.  If anyone out there has had a good peak at the
material at the Tyrrell and can help me decipher some of the specimen
numbers, I would appreciate the help.
