Hwang et al. (2004) refer to a second Ukhaa Tolgod basal troodontid skull (in addition to IGM 100/1323), which based on their description I infer to be Mickey Mortimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08831823442911513851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156944512466583246.post-24586351969017202592017-06-10T08:16:33.888+02:002017-06-10T08:16:33.888+02:00Damn, what happened to that taxon?

Nearly identical crania, as well as the same elongate manual digit II and two main metatarsals. IGM 100/1128 is from the Djadokhta Formation, but Hwang et al.
