EVOLUTIONARY TRENDS IN TRIASSIC DICYNODONTIA [PDF]
, 1974 Triassic Dicynodontia differ from most of their Permian ancestors in a number of specialisations that reach extremes in the Upper Triassic. These are ( 1) increase in total body size, (2) increase in the relative length of the snout and secondary ...

A comparison of the palates of Permian and Triassic dicynodonts [PDF]
, 1968 Main articleWhilst comparing the skulls of some Triassic dicynodonts with Permian members of the family, it was noted that the interpterygoid space in the former is consistently smaller than in the latter (Cruickshank 1965: 1967).

Effective dispersal of fern spore and the ecological relevance of zoochory
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 2116-2130, October 2025.ABSTRACT The mechanisms of fern dispersal are under‐studied and there are few data to support the vectors assumed to drive patterns of sporophyte occurrence and speciation. Although wind is generally the fern spore dispersal vector described in the literature, there has always been competing evidence supporting alternate vectors.

Dicynodonts and the end Permian event [PDF]
, 1990 Patterns of diversity changes in several groups of Late Permian South African terrestrial tetrapods are examined. Using data contained in Kitching (1977), histograms are presented which illustrate changes in a) total number of tetrapod genera per ...

XII. On the structure of the Dicynodont skull [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Containing Papers of a Biological Character, 1916 We propose in this communication to supplement our previous account of the Dicynodon ( D. leoniceps ? ) skull by some observations on another specimen of unknown species, for which we are indebted, through the kind offices of Dr. Smith Woodward, to the generosity of the Trustees of the British Museum.

The neodiapsid Thadeosaurus colcanapi from the upper Permian of Madagascar
Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract The enigmatic neodiapsid Thadeosaurus colcanapi (Lower Sakamena Formation, southwestern Madagascar), sole species of the genus Thadeosaurus, is revised here. The attribution of 12 of the 21 referred specimens is confirmed, spanning all ontogenetic stages, and the anatomy of Thadeosaurus is redescribed in detail with comments on ontogenetical ...

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-69, February 2025.In this article, we have proposed a model for the origin of ferruginous coated grains in a continental rift setting. The association of these iron coated grains with limestones and sub‐aerially weathered microbialites have made them suitable for a comparative assessment of various hypotheses of solute supply and precipitation, which can be relevant for
