Since Velociraptor was the first to be named, these species were renamed Velociraptor antirrhopus and V. langstoni. [22] As of 2008, the only currently recognized species of Velociraptor are V. mongoliensis [14] [37] [38] and V. osmolskae. [15] However, several studies have found "V." osmolskae to be distantly related to V. mongoliensis. [39] [40]
