   According to *The Dinosauria*, p.339, "a series of intermediate-sized
skeletons link this juvenile to larger individuals (length approximately
3m) from the same site which were briefly described by Casamiquela (1980)
as *Plateosaurus* sp....the skulls of which [alleged adult *Mussaurus*]
differ from that of *Coloradisaurus brevis*."
   So, there's the story, although it's still not clear whether or not
the adults belong to *Mussaurus*.-*Thescelosaurus*
