Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Skeletons 3 and 4 (Fig. 1), respectively LH PV5 and LH PV6 (to left), of Sinornithomimus dongi Kobayashi and Lü, 2003 at Suhongtu, showing preservational features indicative of catastrophic miring of an immature herd; in plan view (AD) and incross−sectional view (E, F). A. Skeletons overlap and have parallel body axis orientation. B. The short snout, unfused neurocentral sutures and estimated age (1–2 years) indicate immaturity. Note the unusual curvature in the neck. C. The intact pelvis is missing only the superficially positioned left ilium. D. Agastrolith mass and carbonized stomach contents (anterior and posterior to the gastroliths) lie within the ribcage and gastral basket. Left shank and pes (E) and forelimb (F) with flexed ungual phalanges lodged deep in the claystone in near-vertical orientations. Remaining portions of the skeletons lie above in a horizontal plane that represents the ground surface at the time of miring (marked by ><). A bluish−gray halo surrounds all bones. Scale bars 10 cm.
