Abstract

Barsbold (1981) erected Ingenia yanshini Barsbold, 1981 for a nearly complete oviraptorid skeleton from the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian-Maastrichtian) Barun Goyot Formation in Ömnögov, southern Mongolia. Moreover, he erected a subfamily-level clade Ingeniinae Barsbold, 1981 to distinguish Ingenia yanshini from other oviraptorids such as Oviraptor philoceratops Osborn, 1924 (Barsbold, 1981). When Barsbold first erected the subfamily, he considered this subfamily as monotypic (Barsbold, 1981) but now this subfamily comprisesmultiple taxa such as Machairasaurus leptonychus Longrich, Currie, and Dong, 2010 and Heyuannia huangi Lü, 2002.
