The Pterosaur  Listing

All genus names are, to my current knowledge, valid.  If otherwise, please don't hesitate to email me!  I've left out the various other genus names typically included with such lists, including nomen dubium and so forth, instead wishing to concentrate only on those confirmed species.

Also note that new additions and corrections for the current year will be in a bright blue text, and will remain so until the arrival of the new year.
