RE: dino tracks near Syracuse?

["R. Irmis" <rbi@dana.ucc.nau.edu>]

<<Interestingly, the paper I have here says that direct fossile evidence
takes presedence over indirect evidence, and thusly the name _Coelophysis_
is retained and _Grallator_ dropped.>>

Actually, there is really no way in the world we can assign these footprints
to Coelophysis.  Pretty much any theropod the size of the footprints could
have made them.  Therefore, Grallator is most certainly retained.  It is
what is refered to as a form genus, and refers to the form of the footprint,
since we cant refer to any body fossil genus.
