OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Timimus is a genus of small coelurosaurian theropod dinosaur, which was originally identified as an ornithomimosaur, from the Early Cretaceous of Australia.In 1991, two femora (thighbones), one from an adult and one from a juvenile, were found within a metre of each other at the Dinosaur Cove East site, in the small Lake Copco quarry, at the southern tip of Australia. The type species, Timimus hermani, was formally named and shortly described by Dr Thomas Rich and his wife Patricia Vickers-Rich in 1993/1994. The generic name means Tim's Mimic and combines the name of both the discoverers' son Timothy Rich and palaeontologist Tim Flannery with a Latin mimus, mimic , a reference to the presumed affinity of the species with the Ornithomimosauria. The specific name honours volunteer John Herman who many years assisted the Dinosaur Cove project.
