Today the meeting was held between Dr. Barsbold and us, a newly organized Nakasato web site support team, to discuss the contents of the site. Unfortunately, I could not attend this meeting, but the exciting information's about the dinosaur were provided by Dr. Barsbold at the meeting.

As the new dinosaur remaining is still under cleaning, fine research has not been completed, and I can't tell when it will be published" Dr. Barsbold mentioned. But it is considered to be a new genus from our preliminary study, some of the results I mentioned the other day.
So, regarding its new name, 'Grusimimus tsuru' or 'Tsurumimus' seems to be suitable for this new ostrich-mimic" said Dr. Barsbold. Both 'Grus' and 'tsuru' represent crane. In particular, the latter is a Japanese name of the bird.
Some of my friend told me as a joke that the newly discovered dinosaur might be named after my name (Takeisaurus??), but I was please to hear that the Japanese was likely to be included within the name. I've never imagined that the fossil I found was such an important specimen. I can hardly wait to see the 'Grusimimus' reconstructed and displayed somewhere in a museum or exhibitions. I strongly hope that thorough investigation of this dinosaur will be completed as soon as possible.
