Yuck.  You can select all the text including the "--" markers and  
paste it directly into the main window, though, and it will be parsed  
as BibTeX.  Personally, I'd just select the @article{} part and use  
the Services menu to add it, if you're working in a web browser.

The New Publication From Clipboard feature doesn't recognize it as  
BibTeX, which I think is by design; it's intended for unstructured/ 
untagged text, so doesn't try as hard to interpret the clipboard  
contents.
