Edaphosauridae (Synapsida, Eupelycosauria) from Europe and their relationship to North American representatives

PalZ, 2019
A recent discovery from the Carboniferous–Permian transition of the southwest German Saar–Nahe Basin has revealed a medium-sized edaphosaurid skeleton. It is described as Remigiomontanus robustus gen. et sp. nov. Apart from a largely complete dorsal column, showing the typical hyper-elongated spines with lateral tuberculation, few other elements are ...

Evolution of facial innervation in anomodont therapsids (Synapsida): Insights from X‐ray computerized microtomography

Journal of Morphology, 2018
AbstractAnomodontia was the most successful herbivorous clade of the mammalian stem lineage (non‐mammalian synapsids) during the late Permian and Early Triassic. Among anomodonts, Dicynodontia stands apart because of the presence of an osseous beak that shows evidence of the insertion of a cornified sheath, the ramphotheca.

Locomotor shifts, stylopod proportions, and the evolution of allometry in Synapsida

The Anatomical Record
AbstractLocomotor evolution in synapsids involved numerous functional shifts associated with the transition from sprawled to erect limb postures on the line to therian mammals. Given that bone structure frequently reflects functional requirements, this study investigated evolutionary changes in synapsid humerus and femur proportions as a lens to ...

Forelimb Shape, Disparity, and Functional Morphology in the Deep Evolutionary History of Synapsida

2020
Mammals and their closest fossil relatives use their shoulders and forelimbs for many functions, which is reflected by the great range of mammalian forelimb shapes. Little work has been done to quantify this diversity as it relates to deep mammalian evolutionary history.

Postcranial Description and Reconstruction of the Varanodontine Varanopid Aerosaurus wellesi (Synapsida: Eupelycosauria)

2013
The postcranial skeleton of the varanopid synapsid Aerosaurus wellesi is reconstructed based on several specimens, including partly articulated material of an apparently fully adult specimen. Comparisons are made with other known varanopid taxa, reaffirming its position as a basal varanodontine. Aerosaurus was an obligatory sprawling-gaited animal with
