Chironstenotes synonymies

Place Chironstenotes sternbergi (Cracraft, 1971) in the synonymy of Chironstenotes pergracilis, because this species is definitely referrable to C. pergracilis (Currie, 2005). Also, Sues (1997) showed Ornithomimus elegans to be a species of Chirostenotes. Because Sues (1997) noted similarities of C. sternbergi to C. elegans, he placed C. sternbergi in the synonymy of C. elegans. Currie & Russell (1988) suggested the possible synonymy of Caenagnathus with Chirostenotes, a hypothesis confirmed by Sues (1997). They went further by proposing that C. elegans and C. pergracilis may represent two sexes of the same species.

"I propose returning Ornithomimus elegans to Elmisaurus." Unfortunately, this is not JVP and I am not the peer review comittee. Better publish this elsewhere ;) Dinoguy2 06:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Senter (2007) in his study "A new look at the phylogeny of coelurosauria" found Caenagnathus and Chirostenotes not congeneric and not even closely related. So says tha phylogeny section of the article of wikipedia "oviraptorosauria": but the page contradicts itself. And family Caenagnathidae is found to be paraphyletic too: i suggest a revision of pages related to oviraptorosaurs —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brisio (talk • contribs) 09:56, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've heard of that, too. I don't know how widely accepted it is, however. 209.121.124.49 (talk) 01:34, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
