EDIT: Doh! Just a few more minutes of searching and I found it. Never mind. I have been trying to find this paper on a nodosaurid scuteling from the Paw Paw Formation of Texas with no luck. Does anyone have access to it? Jacobs LL, Winkler DW, Murry PA, Maurice JM. A nodosaurid scuteling from the Texas shore of the Western Interior Seaway. In: Carpenter K, Hirsch KF, Horner J editors. Dinosaur Eggs and Babies. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press; 1994. pp. 337–346. The only information I have about it now comes from a few references to it in related pape

Memorial Day hunt. Site 2 Denton Creek. Paw Paw Formation? of Washita Group
KimTexan posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
This is part 2, site 2 of my Memorial day fossil hunting trip. You can see the site one report here: I chose to drive out to Denton Creek north of Ft. Worth.
