[edit] Stub

I'm removing the stub category for this. It seems very thorough. Anybody who thinks I'm wrong should just add it back on.

[edit] Pre-occupation of the name Diceratops

The Nomenclator Zoologicus entry for Diceratops (http://www.ubio.org/NZ/search.php?search=Diceratops&quickSearch=QuickSearch&selectall=Check+All&colname=on&colcategory=on&colauthority=on&colcomments=on&page=&vol=) shows that Diceratops Hatcher vide Lull, 1905 is pre-occupied by Diceratops Förster, 1868 (a ichneumonid hymenopteran insect). Because Diceratops is pre-occupied, put Diceratops in quotes, and a replacement name will assigned. I guess that the replacement name for Diceratops will be Diploceratops. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.194.116.63 (talk) 00:30, 28 December 2006 (UTC).

Original research, unfortunately. Ubless the fact that Diceratops is preoccupied is published somewhere, it's not our place to point that out here. Dinoguy2 05:59, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
