Description
Fig. 12. Rostral regions (not to scale) of (A) the holotype of Citipati osmolskae IGM 100/978, (B) the holotype of ''Oviraptor'' mongoliensis (IGM 100/32) (reversed), (C) the holotype of Oviraptor philoceratops AMNH 6517, and (D) a referred specimen of the caenagnathid Chirostenotes pergracilis (ROM 43250) (from Sues, 1997). The maxilla of O. philoceratops is relatively longer than in the oviraptorids (B and C) but shorter than in the caenagnathid (D), which represents the plesiomorphic condition for oviraptorosaurians. Arrows indicate premaxillamaxilla contact anteriorly and palatinemaxilla contact posteriorly. Abbreviations in appendix 1.
