[edit] Alternate classification and taxonomic hurdles

This page [1] gives this classification: Archosauromorpha; Archosauria; Crurotarsi; Crocodylotarsi; Phytosauria. This site [2] gives a cladogram, putting the two species in the subfamily Pseudopalatinae. This site [3] gives synonyms. The taxobox needs: type_species, type_species_authority, species (as final taxa) with links to their information (could be in same article), and authorities for each of the two species. References are needed, as are figures of the skulls.--Wloveral (talk) 05:00, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Figures of the skulls may be difficult to produce, as I'm not sure what the non-free media related policies are regarding extinct animals. All the images I've found on the skulls appear to be copyrighted, and I don't know if copyrighted images of skulls or other bones are permitted, or if free-use/public-domain use versions are preferred.

For reference, Alioramus, Othnielosaurus, and Coelurus are recent dinosaur GAs; it would help immensely to get some of the scientific literature concerning this beastie. J. Spencer (talk) 20:18, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
