Missing Pterosaur

Pierre Shale has fossils of a pteranodontid, originally attributed to Pteranodon longiceps but later classified as the species "Geosternbergi maysei" by Alexander Kellner in 2010. Regardless of what you call it, it should be listed here. https://www.scielo.br/j/aabc/a/53XJgp9yCjtjsNzshMkXvPg/?format=pdf&lang=en — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.228.107.227 (talk) 19:52, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Title

This sequence is now known as the "Pierre Shale Group", following a revision by Martin et al in 2007 see here and this article should be renamed accordingly. Mikenorton (talk) 16:31, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
