Pherodactylus rectanguli
† Pherodactylus rectanguli (Xu, Fang & Wang, 2020) = † Tresdigitus gracilis Jiang, Xu, Jarzembowski & Xiao, 2022 Comments. Regarding the synonymy of † Tresdigitus gracilis Jiang, Xu, Jarzembowski & Xiao, 2022 under † P. rectanguli is confirmed based on the morphological similarities outlined by Cadena-Castañeda et al. (2023). Gu et al. (2024) used the original combinations to address the fossil terminal taxa. However, the authors did not make nor clearly state any nomenclatural acts, as the Code demands (Ride et al. 1999), so the revalidation of the original combination did not take effect. Nonetheless, the synonymy of the species is reaffirmed here to avoid future misunderstandings.
