THE JANE DIARIES, ENTRY #12

While away in the UK two weeks ago, I was able to push the Jane ms forward over a couple of days by starting the process of adding the ontogenetic characters from Carr (1999). Each day over the following week I was in the collections of the British Museum of Natural History obtaining data from the type specimen of Dynamosaurus impersiosus, and a referred specimen of Albertosaurus libratus for the ontogenetic data sets of an in-progress comparative study of tyrannosaurid ontogeny that I've had in the works for some time.
