SVP Memoir's A. olseni age

["Tim Donovan" <msdonovan66@hotmail.com>]

 Is a Campanian age really the most up to date and accurate estimate for 
the Iren Dabasu formation and Alectrosaurus?  IIRC Currie only said that 
Iren Dabasu was post Cenomanian, or Turonian to Campanian. In 2001 Kikland 
and Wolfe wrote that similarities between a North American therizinosaur and 
Segnosaurus and Erlicosaurus could help resolve the age of the 
Baynshirenskayasvita "as closer to Turonian than Campanian". And IIRC, the 
Baynshirenian beds of Burkhant are considered to lie within the 
pre-Campanian Cretaceous long normal.
