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 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
