George E. Wilson (right) and his brother Paul Wilson examine the Tanycolagreus topwilsoni plate prior to the naming ceremony on July 6, 2001 at the North American Museum of Ancient Life. The actual specimen is housed inside the glass enclosed display case where the skull, upper torso, and original Coelurus fragilis plate can be seen in this photo. Note: Pieces of the actual specimen are the darker fragments. The lighter colored fragments have been cast to represent the missing pieces.
