, 2021 Varanids are the only non-avian sauropsids that are known to approach the warm-blooded mammals in stamina. Furthermore, a much higher maximum metabolic rate (MMR) gives endotherms (including birds) higher stamina than crocodiles, turtles, and non-varanid

Inter-element variation in the bone histology of Anteosaurus (Dinocephalia, Anteosauridae) from the Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone of the Karoo Basin of South Africa [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Despite its abundance in the Permian fossil record of South Africa, little is known about the life history of Anteosaurus. Here we examine the bone microstructure of multiple skeletal elements of Anteosaurus from the Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone of the

The first Record of Plicidentine in Varanopseidae (Synapsida, Pelycosauria)
, 2020 Infolded dentine (plicidentine) around the pulp cavities of the tooth roots is an ancient dental feature of fishes (sarcopterygians and actinopterygians) and several basal tetrapod groups.

Systematics of the Rubidgeinae (Therapsida: Gorgonopsia) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 The subfamily Rubidgeinae, containing the largest known African gorgonopsians, is thoroughly revised. Rubidgeinae is diagnosed by the absence of a blade-like parasphenoid rostrum and reduction or absence of the preparietal.

A new therocephalian (Gorynychus masyutinae gen. et sp. nov.) from the Permian Kotelnich locality, Kirov Region, Russia [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 A new therocephalian taxon (Gorynychus masyutinae gen. et sp. nov.) is described based on a nearly complete skull and partial postcranium from the Permian Kotelnich locality of Russia. Gorynychus displays an unusual mixture of primitive (“pristerosaurian”

Elevated Cranial Sutural Complexity in Burrowing Dicynodonts
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Relationships between the complexity of the cranial sutures and the inferred ecology of dicynodont synapsids are explored. Simple complexity indices based on degree of sutural interdigitation were calculated for 70 anomodont species and indicate that the
