Citipati sp.
"pyre lord"

     Originally considered to be a specimen of Oviraptor philoceraops, the most well-known oviraptorid specimen GI 100/42 is now considered to be a species of Citipati. This specimen is distinguished from other species of Citipati mainly by it's tall casque, probably covered in keratin as an extension of the beak.
