Talk:Colorado Formation, Argentina

"Colorado Formation" or "Rio Colorado Formation" ??
A person with access to Weishampel et al. (2004) needs to carefully check to see if the Colorado Formation, which is the subject of this articles actually exists. From what what I have been able to find, the Colorado Formation of this article might actually be the Rio Colorado Formation, which already has a separate article. If this is this is the case, this article should either be deleted or merged with it.
