One of my buddies (Brennan) over on instagram got to work on this, how cool. Here is the link to the paper:

And relevant instagram link that gave me the heads up:

I guess you don't mean Hainosaurus?   Very confusing (at least to me) to have two similar names for two tylosaurs..  If you do mean Hainosaurus, hasn't that been known for a long time?.

Edit: it's a new SPECIES...doi (smacks own forehead).  So i guess  you do mean Hainosaurus

If you clicked on the link, you would see that it's Hainosaurus. Faelrin simply made a small spelling error.

Yeah oops. Posted this on mobile. Not as easy to work with for me, unlike on my laptop (which I won't be using until I'm further along in my recovery from my recent surgery). My short term memory is pretty bad as well which don't help. Anyways thanks for pointing out the oops. I'll fix it.

link doesn't work for me.......the text briefly appears then is covered by something else asking me to sign up or sign in or something.

i was initially thinking it was a new GENUS of tylosaur that the thread was about.  And i was puzzled because i knew Hainosaurus had been around for quite a while.  Later i realized it was a new SPECIES the thread was about......hence my 'doi' comment and forehead smack.

Faelrin, no worries about the spelling error, Lord knows i make them all the time.....i was just confused (see above) and thinking there were now two tylosaur genera with very similar names...until i realized my error.

Cool! Those Maastrichtian phosphates of Morocco are making a bid to be as diverse as the Niobrara. I'm loving it.

Okay for some reason the title correction isn't saving. First few letters keep getting deleted. May just need to wait until I can get back to using my laptop. Sorry for the inconvenience.
