Jason Thompson's The Complete Manga Guide has it listed in the hentai section (page 463). The following information is given:
Japanese phonetic title: Iya! Artist's name: Protonsaurus NA publisher and date: Studio Ironcat / Sexy Fruit, 2002 Japanese publisher and date: Issuisha, 1993 Number of issues: 1 (and their use of the word "issue" rather than "volume" indicates, according to the guide's introduction, that it was a stapled comic rather than a tankoubon book) In case you're interested, here's the accompanying review by Derek Guder:

Using the wiki page I tried googling "SexyFruit Oh My" and the best I could do is a picture.
Found it on a German ebay auction for the book. Looking at it it seems it was released January 2000 though it's hard to read so it could be 2002. Edit: Found another image, this one on a Canadian ebay auction. I don't really think this is helpful either but it seems Ironcat under the label SexyFruit was able to get 2 volumes released. |

What I was able to dig up:
Oh My! was by "ProntonSaurus" (published by Izumi Comics); this was later corrected to Protonsaurus. Four issues and a graphic novel were solicited in Diamond's Previews for December 2002 through March 2003 and May 2003, respectively. • #1 (PAGE 320, under "IRONCAT") • #2 (PAGE 296, under "I.C. ENTERTAINMENT") • #3 (PAGE 323, under "I.C. ENTERTAINMENT") • #4 (PAGE 298, under "I_C ENTERTAINMENT" (no underscore)) • GN (PAGE 308, under "I_C ENTERTAINMENT" (no underscore)) (Comics are solicited two months early, and the catalogs are so dated.) I checked a couple of my issues of Previews Adult, and I can confirm that Protonsaurus is credited (in one case, in katakana). Issues #1 and #2 were both released on 29 May 2003 (months late). Issues #3 and #4 were cancelled in the October 2003 Previews (code 3 = "Cancelled by Previews"), while the graphic novel was cancelled in the November 2003 Previews (code 4 = "Cancelled by Publisher"). Checking Amazon.co.jp's Protonsaurus listing, I find いやっ by Izumi Comics. (Protonsuarus also had "Heart Core"/"Heartcore" solicited by Studio Ironcat/I.C. Entertainment, the graphic novel having the subtitle "Wanton Affairs".) |

Thanks a lot to you all! I've added those info under your respective credits.
However, this case has opened Pandora's Box called Studio Ironcat. Most, if not all, of its licensed titles (roughly ranging from #3019-58) are in complete mess, with little or no information (orphaned, including Heart Core), duplications, two titles in one entry, incorrect greenlinks, etc. Worse than anything I've ever seen in this Encyclopedia. 
It's over 2 AM here and I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll leave them as they are for now... |

In an effort to avoid working for an hour, I've had a look through the Ironcat licenses and come up with more information on about half of the titles.

For basic information (mostly based on solicitations, rather than actual publication information), try AnimeMania's manga list.

@Moomintroll:
it would have been simpler if you had added all that info in the Encyclopedia yourself, gradually as you found each info, with the source where you found it. |

Okay - I'll be happy to have a go at it. Only problem is, quite a lot of the info there can't be added by non-encyclopedia staff but I'll make an abreviated list once I've added the stuff I can. Also, can I add "serialised in" information? If so, can somebody tell me how? Or should it just be added using the Other Information option? |

I've added all the Studio Ironcat information I had. The three things I couldn't add are:
1) The correct title of "Doctor" is "Doctor!" 2) Gun Crisis: Deadly Curve is not currently listed in the encyclopedia. Info on it (from Jason Thompson, p.133) is as follows - Art and story: Masaomi Kanzaki Japanese release: Leed Publishing, 1991 US release: Studio Ironcat, 4 issues, 2000 Genre: Action Notes: The story is not related to Gun Crisis in terms of narrative or setting but the two works were published together in one tankoubon in Japan. 3) Vampire Yui had a sequel that ran in Susperia Mystery called Vampire Princess Yui: Kanonsho (source). |
