I renamed this species Ponerosteus exogyrarum in May 2000. Fritsch's generic
name Procerosaurus (not Proceratosaurus) is preoccupied by Huene's name
Procerosaurus (a junior subjective synonym of Tanystropheus, according to
Rupert Wild). Fritsch was also responsible for another Czech dino name,
Iguanodon albinus, now known as Albisaurus albinus. The "albi" refers to the
Elbe River, along whose shore the fossil was discovered. Both species are
based on very poor material that may not be dinosaurian.
