New paper out reviewing the ornithopods of the Griman Creek formation, including the new genus Weewarrasaurus. It's based on a partial dentary (lower jaw), which is about par for the course for Australian dinosaurs. But at least James Keuther has made some nice art to go with it:



The fossils are also rather pretty, being partially opalized.
