Case 3555: Chilodontidae Macalister, 1876 (Ciliophora), Chilodontinae Eigenmann, 1910 (Pisces, Characiformes), and Chilodontinae Wenz, 1938 (Mollusca, Gastropoda): proposed resolution of homonymy
between family-group names

D.G. Herbert, P. Bouchet, “Case 3555: Chilodontidae Macalister, 1876 (Ciliophora), Chilodontinae Eigenmann, 1910 (Pisces, Characiformes), and Chilodontinae Wenz, 1938 (Mollusca, Gastropoda): proposed resolution of homonymy

Comment 3536-2: Comments on Stegosaurus Marsh, 1877 (Dinosauria, Ornithischia): proposed replacement of the type species with Stegosaurus stenops Marsh, 1887 (Case 3536) 2

Kenneth Carpenter, “Comment 3536-2: Comments on Stegosaurus Marsh, 1877 (Dinosauria, Ornithischia): proposed replacement of the type species with Stegosaurus stenops Marsh, 1887 (Case 3536) 2”, Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature, vol. 68, no. 3, pp. 214-215, 2011.

The taxon Stegosaurus armatus was established by O.C. Marsh in 1877 on a very fragmentary specimen from the Morrison Formation near Morrison, Colorado (erroneously stated to be ‘Morrison, Wyoming’ by Galton, BZN 68: 127). The specimen was encased in silicified sandstone and collected very poorly by modern standards using....

Susannah C. R. Maidment, “Comment 3536-1: Comments on Stegosaurus Marsh, 1877 (Dinosauria, Ornithischia): proposed replacement of the type species with Stegosaurus stenops Marsh, 1887 (Case 3536) 1”, Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature, vol. 68, no. 3, pp. 213-214, 2011.

In Case 3536, Galton outlined the taxonomic history of the iconic dinosaur genus Stegosaurus. In this Case, Galton asked the Commission to designate Stegosaurus stenops as type species of the genus Stegosaurus, thereby allowing the holotype specimen of Stegosaurus stenops, USNM 4934, to become the representative of the genus....
