Theropod questions

["Nicholas Gardner" <n_gardner637@hotmail.com>]

Dear all,

I'm under the impression that the pedes are not known for any abelisaurid.  
Is this true?  If not, which ones have preserved them?

Were the pedes preserved in *Staurikosaurus* or *Eoraptor*?

What is "acrodonty"?

Were there any >known< coelurosaurs that retained the fourth metacarpal?

While looking at a skull reconstruction of *Shuvosaurus inexpectus*, I 
noticed that the quadratogajul resembles a inverted "F".  If one wished to 
do a life reconstruction of this theropod, how would one deal with this odd 
shape?




Thanks in Advance,

Nick Gardner                              [Aim] CloudRaptor05
