According to the SVP's policy on distribution of pdf files, the author has the following right among others:

"Without fee payment, the right to send a copy of the article in pdf form to persons on their reprint mailing list, and to persons who request a copy as per (2) above, provided that the pdf is accompanied by the clear statement that: (a) Society of Vertebrate Paleontology is the copyright holder of the article and pdf; (b) the pdf is provided to the recipient for her/his personal use only and is not to be redistributed or disseminated, except for educational use within a school, college, or university setting, and then only if accompanied by a clear statement of these conditions. Such an author-distributed version must be identical to the final published version."

Let's save us the trouble and delay of you emailing me and me emailing you, and instead you can indicate by clicking the button below that you and I will agree that you e-mailed a pdf request to me and I emailed the pdf to you.

By the way, there is a typographical error in the second line of the third paragraph of page 887 in the published paper, which I attempted to correct when I checked the proofs (see image below), but which the incompetant Managing Editor at the JVP left uncorrected.

In addition, the editorial process at the JVP introduced two errors that I did not catch in the proofs because I assumed based on past experience in these days when authors submit electronic copies of their manuscripts that editors might change my wording or punctuation but would not introduce spelling mistakes. In the first case in the first paragraph on page 881, the circled "II-V" in the image below should read "II-IV" and indeed did read that way in the manuscript I submitted.

In the second case in the caption of Fig. 5 on page 887, the circled "non-rticular" in the image below should read "non-articular" and indeed did read that way in the manuscript I submitted.

I did make two errors that I am aware of: 1) in the caption of Fig. 2 on page 882 where the circled "dashed line" in the image below should read "solid line"; and 2) in the caption of Fig. 5 on page 882 where I omitted "as, articular surface" from the listing of abbreviations.
