The binomen Montanalestes keebleri was established for a tribosphenic mammal of probable eutherian affinities from the Lower Cretaceous (Aptian–Albian) Cloverly Formation, Montana, USA. The trivial name was designated for the Keebler family, of Billings, Montana. As pointed out to me by T. Harrison, this designation is implicitly plural, hence, the proper suffix is -orum 1. The species name is hereby corrected to Montanalestes keeblerorum, as provided by articles 19 and 32 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature1.
