I've been trying to figure that one out myself for a very long time. I think I was supposed to be doing something directly related to solving the problem but I forget what. |

So a while back there was this study on mesozoic marine reptiles, trying to define their colour... They tested a turtle, an Ichthyosaur, and a Mosasaur and found them to all be black. Does anyone know the particular species that were tested? |

Is this bradycneme reconstruction accurate? http://th07.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2013/271/f/8/bradycneme_by_moricemonkey93-d6oazuh.jpg |

Nope. If Bradycneme was a troodontid it would have wing feathers, similar o those birds have. If Bradycneme was an Alvarezsaurid then it would be much more inaccurate. |

Even then it would presumably have only one finger and no toe claw. |

That's what I meant when I said it would be much more inaccurate.

What reasoning do you have to think that? There's so little fossil material that such an interpretation would just be wishful thinking. |

Because There's so little fossil material that we can not really tell if it is or not |

By that reasoning, do you know the frightening amount of species belonging to new groups? |

That still doesn't mean it most likely belongs to a different group. We need more fossil material to assess that first. All you do is make wild guesses without evidence. |

well the newest group i know is the scansoropterid group but if we are lucky its in a new group i actually was going to point that out Edited by Cheshire Litten, Mar 22 2015, 02:26 PM.

If you are lucky, then yes, I guess it will be part of it's own new group. I find that highly unlikely though, based on what the little we do have about it. They think its either a troodontid or, as was recently published, an alvarezsaurid. Edited by Admiral General Aladeen, Mar 22 2015, 02:24 PM.

It may even be an oviraptorosaur or a dromeaosaur or even a scansoropterid |
