Triassic, too?

Triassic than is generally thought,

I don't understand what you mean; several LTr NA ornithischian tooth taxa
are known, plus what (if anything) has been left of *Technosaurus*.

>>or global migration occurred around the Tr-J boundary.<<

Hard to prevent in Pangaea...

>>Does Trisauropodiscus occur throughout the Stromberg Triassic, or only
near the Tr-J?<<

I used to think the Stormberg series is EJ only? (Disclaimer -- this is not
a rhethorical question. Never take my word on stratigraphy, I read
practically no primary literature on that.) And isn't it written -or- rather
than -ro-, or is that something different?
