Camptosaurus sections

edit

I propose dividing this article into not only the Introduction, but also the Lifestyle, Species, Behavior, History, Popular Culture, and References. 72.194.116.63 23:55, 20 February 2007 (UTC) Vahe Demirjian 15.54 20 February 2007Reply

Naming Authority

edit

As mentioned in the article the genus war first described in 1879 by Marsh as Camptonotus what came into conflict with the name of a genus of crickets. So that should have been consequences for the taxobox: the correct spelling of the naming authority shuld be (Marsh, 1879), see Wikipedia:How to read a taxobox. --83.129.11.114 10:37, 26 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Outdated skull image

edit

We could use a new skull image, as the current one is based on the old reconstruction that unwittingly combined real campto bones with scientific license and Theiophytalia. A pdf with new reconstructions can be found here, courtesy of Ken Carpenter. J. Spencer (talk) 04:01, 4 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Should it be separated from here? The 2010 study seems to indicat~e so. FunkMonk (talk) 11:54, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, it looks like Camptosaurus is triply paraphyletic (big surprise). Note that Naish and Martill 2008, as noted in the text, also supported it as distinct. There are no references indicating its status in the intervening 100 years... MMartyniuk (talk) 23:28, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Camtosaurids/roids

edit

Why not have a separate page for these? They have multiple genuses(Is that the correct plural of genus?) and they are hard to find(same goes for Campilognathids/thoids.). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.176.114.76 (talk) 21:39, 1 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

Actually, they are currently known to contain only the type genus (plural: genera) Rnnsh (talk) 23:07, 1 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
