Quick pix of ‘Jimbo’, the Wyoming Supersaurus
Another quick photo post from the road. The Tate Museum has a quality in common with the Oxford Museum of Natural History, where the guiding philosophy seems to have been, “Let’s put one of every interesting thing in the world in one big room.” Tucked into a corner is this small assemblage of cast bits of ‘Jimbo’, the Wyoming Supersaurus specimen described by Lovelace et al. (2008).
Here’s a tibia.
And a dorsal vertebra. I’m such a ninny, because the centrum is a little out-of-round I assumed that this was a cast of BYU 9044, the ‘Ultrasauros’ holotype vertebra. I didn’t figure out that it was a piece of Jimbo until I was on the road. *facepalm*
Anyway, in sauropod circles we refer to vertebrae like this as “real darn big”, the last size category before “stupidly huge”.
A dorsal rib, upside down. Pneumatic! Some cool art by Russell Hawley lurking behind.
And here’s the Jimbo mount at the Wyoming Dinosaur Center in Thermopolis.
Both the Tate and the WDC need a lot more nice things said about them by me, but this trip is still in progress, so all that will just have to wait.
