conserve the usage of the name Allosaurus Marsh, 1877 by replacement of the
fragmentary and nondiagnostic holotype of Allosaurus fragilis Marsh, 1877 with a
diagnostic skull and skeleton from the same quarry. The name of the genus
Allosaurus, whose type species is A. fragilis, is widely accepted by palaeontologists
and has been familiar to the public for decades and it is essential that an adequate
type be available. It is proposed that all type species fixations for the genus Allosaurus
be set aside and a neotype be designated.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Case</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">53</style></section></record></records></xml>
