[edit] coprolite

It might be a valuable anecdotal reference regarding the Bone Wars to mention that Marsh named coprolite after ED Cope. I read that in a book on the Bone Wars. --Cromwellt|talk|contribs 04:52, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Good story, but not so. Copro comes from the Gr. for fecees.--Wloveral (talk) 19:03, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
