† Chunxiania Xu, Wang & Fang, 2022 stat rev.

Comments. In this new revision, † Chunxiania is revalidated as a valid genus. The differentiation between † Chunxiania and † Pherodactylus lies mainly in the conical processes or projections located on the males’ faces. This key characteristic was not described in the original description of the genus. For all other characteristics that can be observed in the available fossils, † Chunxiania and † Pherodactylus are very similar. This genus only includes the type species † Chunxiania fania Xu, Wang & Fang, 2022 .
