Giant Dromaeosaurid in the Bissekty Formation of Uzbekistan

[Troodon]

For those of you that collect material from Uzbekistan this is interesting.  The attached "PAYWALLED" paper describes a very large Digit II-2 phalanx that belongs to a giant Dromaeosaurid.  The article also raises questions around the recently described Ulughbegsaurus uzbekistanensis but need to read the publication if I can get my hands on it.
