CommentSynonymy partly after Etheridge & Williams 1985. Peters et al. 1970 name D’ORBIGNY & BIBRON 1847 as describers. At least some species of the extinct genus Erichosaurus have been synonymized with Pristidactylus (Albino et al. 2017).

Type species: Leiosaurus fasciatus D’ORBIGNY & BIBRON 1837: 8 is the type species of the genus Pristidactylus FITZINGER 1843.

Phylogenetics: The genera Diplolaemus, Leiosaurus, and Pristidactylus have been combined in the Leiosaurae clade (Morando et al. 2015). 
EtymologyNamed after Latin fascia = band, for the dorsal cross-bands in this species.

The genus was named after Greek pristis (πρίστης), saw or file + Greek dactylos (δάκτυλος), finger, toe.
