RE: Unescoceratops and Gryphognathus, new ceratopsians from Alberta



Nomenclator Zoologicus is everyone's friend.

"Gryphognathus," if and when it is published (as the paper in question is still 
"in Press," it is not yet published), would not be preoccupied. We don't need 
another brouhaha with ceratopsians and need for replacement names.
