In the last section, “Anchironis” should be “Anchiornis”.

Good review!
My favorite is probably Senter’s study using the same methodologies used by creationists against evolutionary theory: he used such methods among the coelurosaurs in order to show that they are all linked together (from tyrannosaurs to birds) in a single morphological continuum without gaps, and, thus, that “distinct creations” are falsified and that evolution results the best explanation even in the creationist paradigm.

I both love and hate the fact that we can now determine the coloring of some feathered dinosaurs. I love it because this discovery will only lead to new discoveries. By analyzing dinosaur coloring, we can determine the lifestyle and possibly the habitat of the species. Paleontology is one big puzzle, and this new technology will provide the corner pieces.

However, as an amateur paleoartist, I feel that knowing the coloration of dinosaurs will take away much of the artistic freedom of paleoart. Much of the fun of drawing prehistoric creatures is coloring the creatures the artist’s way.

Thank you for posting this article. It has shed light on many discoveries that I was not aware of.
