Eric Buffetaut & Varavudh Suteethorn, Remarks on Psittacosaurus sattayaraki Buffetaut & Suteethorn, 1992, a ceratopsian dinosaur from the Lower Cretaceous of Thailand. Oryctos 4, 71-73.
The validity of Psittacosaurus sattayaraki, from the Early Cretaceous of Thailand, has recently been questioned by Sereno, who claims that the material is poorly preserved and can only be referred to as “Ceratopsia incertae sedis”. We correct several inaccuracies in Sereno’s discussion, and reassert that the Thai material warrants identification as a distinct species of the genus Psittacosaurus.
Keywords : Psittacosaurus, Early Cretaceous, Thailand, preservation, identification
