Hi fellow DML-members!
I have finally found some time to do some
serious reconstructing and one of these results is, as the subject says already,
a skull reconstruction of _Irritator_challengeri_. It is based on the
skull-picture on the H.D. Sues-site and covers only the skull, since the lower
jaw is too fragmentary to reconstruct with any certainty. Please contact me
off-list if anyone wants the pic and feel free to do any
commenting!
While reconstructing it, I stuck to the
skull-shape that I mentioned a month earlier or so, that the skull slopes down
near the quadrate area, which I believe is natural and not due to any crushing.
Doing so, it nicely followed the rest of the skull remains and the curve upwards
the lower jaw shows in the elements known from it.
Awaiting your response!
Rutger Jansma
