Here is the fifth supplement to Dinosaurs: The Encyclopedia, a 1998
American Library Association Outstanding Reference Book. Since the
publication of the acclaimed first volume, a virtual explosion in the
number of exciting discoveries in dinosaur paleontology has made
supplemental volumes necessary and indispensable. Among the many
dramatic events discussed in the fifth supplement are the discovery of
what may be the largest Jurassic theropod specimen yet collected; the
uncovering of evidence of a dinosaur possessing opposable fingers; and
Robert M. Sullivan's reassessment of Pachycepholasauria. Like the
previous supplements, this volume includes lengthy sections on
dinosaurian schematics and genera and updates the encyclopedia's list of
excluded genera. Supplemental volumes do not repeat information from
earlier volumes, but build upon them: : view all volumes on the series
