Aulonocranus → Aulonocranus dewindti – Being monotypic article should be under genus name. As it stands currently, any information applicable to the genus will also apply to the species. Having this information in the species article rather than the genus article also makes creation of a genus article should another species be described much easier and not require a cut-and-paste move.

Oppose It's true that this would make it easier to deal with the description of a new species, but the move would contradict WP:NCFAUNA. --BDD (talk) 17:28, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:NCFAUNA#Monotypic taxa. If and when a new species is discovered, the situation can be rectified quite easily. Favonian (talk) 17:31, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
