Merger discussion[edit]

This seems to cover the same taxa as Venyukovioidea. The -oidea ending suggests that Venyukovioidea is a superfamily, but it is described in the taxobox and text as an infraorder. Venyukoviamorpha is described in text as a superfamily (and was until recently called a superfamily). Fossilworks only has a record for Venyukovioidea which is described there as a clade. Mikko's phylogeny archive treats -morpha and -oidea as synonyms. Venyukovioidea gets more reported results on Google scholar (and a general Google search).

If the two names don't have different circumscriptions, I think the title should be Venyukovioidea, but Venyukoviamorpha has more content. Calling -oidea a clade (or a superfamily) is OK; it shouldn't be called an infraorder without a source. Plantdrew (talk) 02:44, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support although I think they could both use some general restructuring.

Merger complete. ... but very happy for someone with more topic expertise to tidy it in situ. Klbrain (talk) 15:45, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
