RE: Arkansaurus Vs. Arkanosaurus

Hello again everybody,
I know "Arkansaurus/Arkanosaurus" is not yet described, so there's little-to-know information available.
My question is very simple: Which name is correct?

Until the genus is actually described, neither name is 'correct'. A similar situation exists with the Asian sauropod "Nurosaurus"/"Noeurosaurus" - until someone actually provides a scientific description, there are no rules on which spelling is the correct one.


Nomina nuda are a huge pain in the ***.
