New oviraptorid preserves reproductive organ
I had a few spare minutes to do some translating of the
Chinese text for the oviraptor specimen new item shown at:
http://www.dinosaurclass.com/dino0905.htm
The title translates roughly as "Male dinosaur with fossil
reproductive organ discovered in Heyuan." The text
mentions that the specimen has soft tissue preserved. The
outline of the putative organ can been seen in the view of
the specimen on the right (indicated in black). Sorry I
don't have time to do a full translation at the moment but
the find sounds rather amazing if
true!
