 _Revueltoraptor_, in conjunction with some bone fragments associated with 
 the pelvis. I wondered if anyone had any more information about this animal 
 and/or a ref. for it.
 Also, they had the specimen of "Gertie" there. I take it, since it still 
 said "Gertie," that it hasn't been described, but does anyone know anything 
 more about the animal? >>

"Gertie" is what eventually became Chindesaurus bryansmalli. Revueltoraptor 
appeared, I think, in Adrian Hunt's unpublished PhD dissertation and it may 
now be Camposaurus arizonensis or Caseosaurus crosbyensis. If it isn't one of 
those two, then it's still unpublished.
