Melanosteus occitanus was named by Hervé Lelièvre and Daniel Goujet in 1987 for a specimen from Montagne Noire consisting of the jaws and the cranial and thoracic armor.[2] However, that genus name was preoccupied by the melanoscleriteMelanosteus.[3] In 2023, Artem M. Prokofiev proposed Melanomontanosteus as a replacement name.[1]
Phylogenyedit
Melanomontanosteus has been classified as a member of the family Selenosteidae since its original description.[2] Below is a simplified cladogram based on the results of Jobbins et al. (2022).[4]
