Default I am so fucking angry I could slit his throat....

witrh chopsticks. So that it hurts more.


For half an eternity I have been urgently trying to get a fossil out of China on loan - it is a new species of Psittacosaurus. The Chinese contact made excuses and promises for years now. So far, nothing has come of it.


Guess what?


It is no longer an undescibed species!

and the skull I had is even better preserved and would make a much nicer holotype.



Now I should say that there is (slim, very slim) hope for me - maybe the obvious nasal broadening of this animal just happenes to be the same but the rest of the sull has differences. 'my' skull is less broad and more boxy instead of triangular. But I dare not hope.
