Talk:Antrodemus

Still labelled? Really?

Please friends have a look a the article as it is at present: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Antrodemus&oldid=1239464332 The image caption reads "Allosaurus mount still labelled as Antrodemus at Princeton's Department of Geosciences in Guyot Hall". Can anyone confirm if whether or not that skeletal mount at Guyot Hall in Princeton really is "still labelled Antrodemus"? Thank you in advance. Kintaro (talk) 16:32, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

The image and info was added by Fritsebits, but yes, it's unsourced. If it isn't actually labelled as Antrodemus anymore, it's inclusion is unwarranted. FunkMonk (talk) 16:50, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

@FunkMonk, hello! I brought my source to that claim. The specimen at least has been identified as an Antrodemus. The problem I have is this "still" in the caption. It may no longer be labelled as Antrodemus, therefore my question in the present thread of discussion. Kindest regards. Kintaro (talk) 11:37, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Ok friends, I'm back. I just brought a few changes to the article. Whatever, because FunkMonk said "it's inclusion is unwarranted" I provisionally removed the "still" part in the caption. Nevertheless, my query stands: is that skeleton still labelled as Antrodemus in Princeton? Thank you in advance to whoever would be able to confirm if whether or not this is true.

Whatever it was once labeled as, is now a moot point - see here: https://paw.princeton.edu/article/new-home-and-pose-guyots-allosaurus - it's no longer there while being moved to a new building! Fritsebits (talk) 04:30, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Synonymy

Why is Megalosaurus listed as a synonym, when that is apparently an accepted genus in Megalosauridae, a different family entirely? ~2026-12800-59 (talk) 18:25, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

It's the full binomial combination that's a synonym, not Megalosaurus alone. FunkMonk (talk) 18:33, 26 February 2026 (UTC)
