Suprangular → Surangular – Surangular is overwhelmingly more commonly used than "suprangular", as evidenced by Google Ngrams and hits on Google and Google Scholar. For instance, Google Scholar finds only 145 results for "suprangular" and 5,590 for "surangular", and the Google Ngrams graph shows use of "suprangular" to be essentially negligible. Suprangular isn't even the second-most common spelling. It's fourth, behind "supra-angular" and "supraangular". I don't know if I've ever seen the spelling "suprangular" used before today, and I consider myself reasonably well-read on the subject of vertebrate osteology.

Move. WP:COMMONNAME. Highly doubt there is a good reason to object. Lythronaxargestes (talk | contribs) 03:16, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Move - to the much more common spelling. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 19:25, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
