A new preprint has been made available:

Zhang, Z., Dong, Q., Wang, T., You, H., and Wang, X. 2026. Redescription of the osteology and systematic of Panguraptor lufengensis (Neotheropoda: Coelophysoidea). ARPHA Preprints,  82 pp. DOI: 10.3897/arphapreprints.e185559

ABSTRACT: Panguraptor lufengensis You et al., 2014 is the first Coelophysoidea
species that has been named in Asia. In previous studies, the description of holotype
lacked anatomical details, leaving inadequate amounts of information. In this research,
the anatomy is further described and the autapomorphic characters of P. lufengensis
are re-evaluated, expanding into a combination of six characters. Phylogenetic
analysis shows P. lufengensis is an early-branching member of the superfamily
Coelophysoidea, indicating a yet to be uncovered ghost lineage of Coelophysoidea in
East Asia.

Wow, this desperately needs editing by someone familiar with English...
