ABSTRACT The morphology of the temporal region in the tetrapod skull traditionally has been a widely discussed feature of vertebrate anatomy. The evolution of different temporal openings in Amniota (mammals, birds, and reptiles), Lissamphibia (frogs, salamanders, and caecilians), and several extinct tetrapod groups has sparked debates on the ...

Novas informações sobre a morfologia dentária de Hyperodapedontinae (Archosauromorpha, Rhynchosauria) [PDF]
Rhynchosauria é um grupo de Archosauromorpha basais, com registro fóssil restrito ao período Triássico. Eram formas herbívoras com um peculiar aparato mastigatório caracterizado por pré-maxilares voltados ventralmente, formando um “bico”, e um sistema de

Rhynchosauria compõe um grupo de Archosauromorpha restrito aos depósitos triássicos, sendo que a origem e irradiação do grupo ocorreu no contexto das mudanças faunísticas drásticas causadas pela extinção em massa do Permo-Triássico.

Correctly identifying taxa at the root of major clades or the oldest clade-representatives is critical for meaningful interpretations of evolution. A small, partially crushed skull from the Late Triassic (Norian) of Connecticut, USA, originally described

Sobreviventes: diversificação de Archosauromorpha após a Extinção Permo-Triássica
: The Archosauromorpha is defined as the clade that comprises all diapsids more closely related to the lineage of birds (Ornithodira or Avemetatarsalia) and crocodylians (Pseudosuchia or Crurotarsi) than to Lepidosauria. In addition to their ‘basal’ taxa

Bone tissues of Triassic taxa reveal life history signals consistent with climatic variation across southern Pangea, spanning present‐day Brazil, Argentina, Zimbabwe, and India. Slower growth patterns within the Zimbabwean assemblage suggest a comparatively more arid intracontinental environment than those closer to the coast. Artwork by Andrey Atuchin.

A new species of the rhynchosaur genus Hyperodapedon, namely H. tikiensis, is described from well-preserved skeletal elements that were collected from the Upper Triassic Tiki Formation of India.

Abstract Recent work has suggested that the presence of extraoral soft tissues (‘lips’), in the form of labial scales in theropod dinosaurs, could be inferred based on: anteroposteriorly distributed foramina in the rostral bones, similar to extant lepidosaurs; vertically projected teeth; uniform enamel thickness in maxillary teeth; and an allometric ...

Abstract There is a growing consensus that pterosaurs and the flightless Lagerpetidae are closely related. This relationship is supported by apomorphies throughout the skeleton, including endocranial character states such as a well‐developed floccular fossa and a tall anterior semicircular canal. Our knowledge of lagerpetid anatomy has been improved by
