Airakoraptor
"Airakoraptor" was a genus of maniraptoran theropod dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous Period. It lived in what is now Burkhant, Mongolia and was first (partially) described by Perle, Norell & Clark, in 1999, with a potential "type species" of "A. giganticus". It is considered a nomen nudum because it has not been fully described. It may have been a member of Dromaeosauridae, a family of theropods which includes Dromaeosaurus, Velociraptor, Utahraptor and Deinonychus.
