Aetosauria: a clade of armoured pseudosuchians from the Upper Triassic continental beds

open access: yesGeological Society Special Publication, 2013
Abstract Aetosauria is a clade of obligately quadrupedal, heavily armoured pseudosuchians known from Upper Triassic (late Carnian–Rhaetian) strata on every modern continent except Australia and Antarctica. As many as 22 genera and 26 species ranging from 1 to 6 m in length, and with a body mass ranging from less than 10 to more ...

Cranial osteology ofLongosuchus meadeiand the phylogeny and distribution of the Aetosauria

open access: yesJournal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 1994
ABSTRACT The aetosaur Longosuchus meadei is known from several specimens from the Upper Triassic (Carnian) of Texas. The structure of the single well preserved skull (TMM 31185-84B) was restudied in light of the appearance of new material of other archosaurs subsequent to Sawin's original (1947) description.

The first occurrence of the aetosaurParatypothorax andressi (Reptilia, Aetosauria) in the western United States and its biochronological significance

open access: yesPaläontologische Zeitschrift, 1992
A partial skeleton of the aetosaurParatypothorax andressi from Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona, is the first documentation of this species in North America.Paratypothorax is one of the few tetrapod taxa that occur in both the Keuper of Germany and the Chinle Group of the western United States, but it is of limited biochronological utility ...

Intraspecific variation in early-diverging pseudosuchians : new perspectives from the Aetosauria

open access: yes
Intraspecific variation is a critical aspect of vertebrate paleontology because it impacts our conceptualization of the paleobiogeography, temporal longevity, paleobiology, evolutionary relationships, and taxonomy of species. Unfortunately, intraspecific variation remains poorly understood in extinct taxa because most are lacking an adequate sample ...
