Bawitius possible size[edit]

According to this article, this species was large. How large, though? Any estimates from the holotype available? Tnophelia (talk) 17:38, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article implies that according to the fragmentary remains, Bawitius may have been five times larger than modern bichirs. Obviously, one of us needs to get ahold of the paper, itself, to put in concrete measurements.--Mr Fink (talk) 20:10, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Grandstaff et al.2012 (JVP 32(1)17-26) state "∼250–300 cm in estimated total length"Ozraptor4 (talk) 02:46, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
