Streptospondylus: new ref

[christian farrell kammerer <cfkammer@midway.uchicago.edu>]

Haven't seen this mentioned on the list yet:
Allain, Ronan. 2001. Redescription de _Streptospondylus altdorfensis_, le
dinosaure theropode de Cuvier, du Jurassique de
Normadie. Geodiversitas. 23(3):349-367.

Redescribes _S. altdorfensis_, and finds it to be a valid, diagnosable
taxon (I can't read French, so I don't know what features support
this.) All large theropod remains from the Callovo-Oxfordian of the Vaches
Noires are referred to this taxon, inlcuding the 
following: Streptospondylus rostro-major sensu Owen, 
1842; Streptospondylus cuvieri Owen, 1842 (Megalosaurus cuvieri); Laelaps
gallicus Cope,1867; Eustreptospondylus divesensis Walker, 1964
partim; and "crocodile fossils" Cope, 1800;1824. Some vertebral features
link _Streptospondylus_ with _Eustreptospondylus_, and both taxa are
assigned to the Spinosauroidea.
