R. 2001. The hadrosaurian dinosaurs (Ornithischia: Hadrosauria) of Big Bend National Park, Brewster County, Texas, with implications for Late Cretaceous paleozoogeography. Unpublished M.S. thesis, Texas Tech University. xvi + 417 pp. The specific case is Saurolophidae (n. comb.), which is included within Hadrosauridae. I almost nested a genus between a genus, but held off (for now). It really isn't worth ILLing... I'll publish the nomenclature soon enough anyway. For trivia buffs, to my knowledge, this is the only thesis from TTU to ever incorporate Phylogenetic Nomenclature... a point not lost on the author's committee.
