Is that so obvious? I mean, it's likely, because of *Epidendrosaurus*, but
what do I know about the geology of places that haven't been mentioned in
(dinosaur) literature before?<<
So, some of the places listed in the book AFAIK haven't been mentioned
either. Does that mean they're wrong?
Well, I double checked and the book as it as Haifangou Formation (So it
wasn't me). I'm going with this spelling.

Indeed. But you never know nowadays, when nobody knows Latin anymore (let
alone Greek) and editors are capable of inserting an h after the authors
have proof-read.
Actually what happened with this one is my spell check. I didn't notice it
the first time I sent this to the list but when I was inputting the
information into my computer I put the 'us' and the spell check changed it
to 'es'. So, neither was not may fault...
