| dc.description.abstract | "A new ornithomimosaur from the Yixian Formation of Liaoning Province Peoples Republic of China is described. These beds are near the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary. This specimen is interesting because it has several primitive characters for ornithomimosaurs such as teeth and a short first metacarpal. This taxon is placed in a phylogenetic analysis of Coelurosauria and shown to be near the base of the ornithomimosaur clade. Using this phylogeny we comment on the biogeographic history of this group"--P. [1]. | en_US |

American Museum Novitates
Novitates (Latin for "new acquaintances"), published continuously and numbered consecutively since 1921, are short papers that contain descriptions of new forms and reports in zoology, paleontology, and geology. New numbers are published at irregular intervals.
