Merge with Sapeornis?
[edit]The article doesn't give any reason not to? FunkMonk (talk) 03:02, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
- I guess we could, though I'd like to be able to double-check the source that's listed as synonymizing them here. Omnivoropteryx has been pretty much ignored in the literature save for a few offhand mentions as far as I know, so while it probably is a junior synonym, I don't know if there's really enough justification for it at this time (similar to Cryptovolans/Microraptor). However, Greg Paul also synonymized them without comment in his new field guide, so if the Anatomy paper does indeed suggest they are synonyms I don't see a reason not to do it (especially if the later actually gives some kind of rationale).
