Here is the response I got from Mike Triebold regarding the new flat
headed specimen and his domeless skull (skull complete save for the
dome)

Hi Ken,

I don't think so.  On ours, the bone around where the dome would have
been gets dramatically thicker and slopes upward near the suture.  I saw
that skull at the Childrens Museum awhile back, and it is really neat,
and much different.  I'm still convinced that ours is a male P.
wyomingensis.  We have a highly detailed cast of just the preserved
portions of our skull here that is handleable, plus the original on
display in the exhibit hall.
