[edit] Head/Crest(lack of-) of Ingenia

After doublechecking the heads of ingenia are: The holotype, contains the braincase and lower jaw, no indication pro or against a crest. Reffered skulls are speculative, none have ever been compared to the type material in such a way that refferal is grounded in facts, but rather named "Ingenia sp" out of convenience. These should not be counted as part of Ingenia yanshini as they could really be anything still.

There is a new skull reffered to Ingenia, (i'm not sure if its reffered down to species level), but its not described as of what I know, so untill it is, it would be best, in a scientific sense, to leave out visual descriptions of the skull (except for the braincase and lower jaw..) untill further descriptions are available.

[edit] Ingenia urban legend

There was a rumor that "Ingenia" was named after the InGen cloning technique deployed in Jurassici Park, but this rumor proved to be incorrect. [1]

[edit] Status of Ingenia

Is there a paper in press that will provide a replacement name for "Ingenia"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.194.116.63 (talk) 01:09, 3 January 2007 (UTC).
