Troodon Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Late Triassic Vertebrates of the Dockum Group. I dont see dinosaurs jumping out in these papers. A recent article/paper on Dinosauromorphs pdf in article https://palaeo-electronica.org/content/2016/1498-dockum-basal-dinosauromorphs None recorded in this paper 1987 https://www.jstor.org/stable/40024385 None recordered in this 1993 publication https://www.researchgate.net/publication/267427539_Late_Triassic_vertebrates_from_the_Dockum_Formation_near_Otis_Chalk_Howard_County_Texas Older publication mentions some indeterminate dinosaurs 1972 https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://nmgs.nmt.edu/publications/guidebooks/downloads/23/23_p0120_p0123.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiP2rL9jtPcAhWPJHwKHQDYCdUQFjAEegQIAxAB&usg=AOvVaw1yaYqj4nERPHB3wAZPcdM5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruitbat Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I found a couple of references to dinosaurs in the Dockum Group. Try these: Nesbitt, S.J. and M.D. Ezcurra (2015). The early fossil record of dinosaurs in North America: A new neotheropod from the base of the Upper Triassic Dockum Group of Texas. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 60(3). Sarigul, V. (2017). New Theropod Fossils from the Upper Triassic Dockum Group of Texas, USA, and a Brief Overview of the Dockum Theropod Diversity. PaleoBios, 34. If you want to do some more reading about the Dockum Group, the Texas section of my pdf library here on TFF has a few good references. Here's a LINK. Just scroll down until you get to the section on Texas - Triassic. The majority of large Triassic vertebrates from the Dockum Group seem to be from non-dinosaur archosauromorphs. Here's a LINK to that section of my pdf library. Look through the various sections and you should find quite a few references to the Dockum. Hope this helps a little. -Joe 4 Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
