Re: Notheonychus?

I stumbled across a description for a new "series" that is the addendum to
WWD..."When Dinosaurs Roamed America."  Is this an actual "series"?  It also
describes a "therizinosaur" called Notheonychus.  Is this even a real
dinosaur?  The series, according to this page (
http://www.dismalscanyon.com/Dinos_text_page.html ) will feature  "raptors"
and a zuni ceratops (assumingly Zuniceratops).  Anyone know anything about
this?
 
Well, as Zuniceratops is featured, perhaps this is the name for Kirkland's new Moreno Hill Formation therizinosaur.  If you recall, the supposed parietal of Zuniceratops turned out to be a therizinosaur ischium.  Quite a bit more is preserved and a description is on the way.  Pretty cool name, but what a horrible way to have it leaked.
