Chasmatopia and of Tate, 2002

[Jay <sappororaptor@yahoo.com>]

Hi all, i was looking for more information in this publication...

The Mesozoic in Wyoming.
Tate 2002, Casper College. Published 2003.

...when i came across this message:

http://dml.cmnh.org/2004Jun/msg00255.html

I know it was posted a while ago, but does anyone know more specifically about 
the fate of any
newly introduced taxa in that volume (including Chasmatopia)? Perhaps, Mickey 
or Jaime since that
message has your names attached.  
I haven't been able to find Chasmotopia widely on the net. Were other names 
introduced?

To the volume itself, the papers from this haven't been widely cited in recent 
publications. ..so,
are the papers considered 'valid', i guess from a peer reviewed, officious 
point of view. Sorry
for my poor word choice.

The only page numbers and the content that i'm aware of include:
18-34 Phylogeny and biogeography of basal ornithischia.
35-47 Paleoecology of the Morrison Formation.
48-68 Armour of Ankylosaurus.
70-75 Small vertebrates of Wyoming and Mongolia.
76-105 Reconstructing a Morrison paleoriver.
114-119 Theropod trackway.
120-131 Paleoecology of the Bighorn basin.
132-154 Distribution of diplodocid chevrons

If anyone can elucidate more on this rare publication (from my point), then 
that will be helpful
J
