Hi All -- please forward this to anyone -- and I mean anyone! -- to whom you 
think this may be of interest (and to other geoscientific listservers, too!)

--------------------------------------

CALL FOR PAPERS

for a special issue of the

New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Bulletin

covering all facets of the global, terrestrial

Triassic-Jurassic transition.

This volume is a follow-up to the successful "Tracking Dinosaur Origins: 
The Triassic/Jurassic Terrestrial Transition" conference held in St. George, 
UT March 14-16, 2005. This volume is open to any and all papers concerning 
terrestrial ecosystems in the Late Triassic and Early Jurassic and changes 
across the boundary. We welcome papers on:

* Plants
* Invertebrates
* Vertebrates
* Trace fossils
* Paleoecology, paleoclimatology, and paleogeography
* Stratigraphy and biostratigraphy
* Dating, paleomagnetics, etc.
* Site reports

The New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Bulletin has an 
established history of publishing important thematic volumes, including The 
Nonmarine Triassic and Lower and Middle Cretaceous Terrestrial Ecosystems, 
and the volume on the Triassic-Jurassic transition is intended as a 
companion to these pre-existing collections. The Triassic-Jurassic 
transition volume will be edited by Spencer Lucas, Jim Kirkland, Jerry D. 
Harris, and Andrew R.C. Milner.
