        Correct. GSP is included in the acknoledgements of the novel. Quoting 
from
my well-worn paperback copy of JP, page 117:

        "What do you know about Velociraptor?" Grant asked Tim. He was just 
making
conversation.
        "It's a small carnivore that hunted in packs, like Deinonychus," Tim 
said.
        "That's right," Grant said, "although Deinonychus is now considered one 
of
the velociraptors..."
