New Morrison Monograph Now Available
>From John Foster via vrtpaleo:
All,
The New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science is happy to report that
another Bulletin is available for sale. NMMNH Bulletin 36 "Paleontology and
Geology of the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation" is a 249-page volume with
wide coverage that should be of great value to all Morrison and other
Mesozoic workers. The volume includes: geological investigations of several
areas; taphonomic studies of several localities, including the Fruita Paleo
Area (finally) and Cleveland-Loyd Quarry; a report on possibly the largest
dinosaur ever; comparisons to other faunas; plants, tracks, and small
vertebrates; and an updated faunal and floral list of taxa from the Morrison
(see table of contents below).
Bulletin 36 sells for $30 from the NMMNH Natureworks Store
To order: contact Rhea Alper at the NMMNH Store, at rhea.alper@state.nm.us
or 505-841-2803
An order form with all NMMNH Bulletins (including this) will be available
