Re: Defining Ornithischia 2



Now that it got through, I notice I missed something:

And the external mandibular fenestra extends all the way to the predentary,
excluding the dentary from the ventral jaw margin?!? That would be
completely unique. For short dentaries and large mandibular fenestrae, have
a look at derived oviraptorids like *Citipati*.

A contact between the predentary and the splenial, necessary in this interpretation, would also be unique, wouldn't it?
