Bioestratigrafia Preliminar da Formação Santa Maria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Este trabalho ocupa-se de uma aproximação preliminar à bioestratigrafia da Formação Santa Maria (Triássico Médio superior a Triássico Superior médio). A peleoherpetofauna desta formação é conhecida há vários anos, mas somente agora existem suficientes ...

Cranial osteology and reassessment of the historically collected South African gorgonopsians FMNH UC 1513 (Lycaenops cf. L. angusticeps) and AMNH FARB 5537 (Lycaenops angusticeps)

open access: yesVertebrate Anatomy, Morphology, Palaeontology
Lycaenops contains one of the most anatomically complete gorgonopsian specimens (AMNH FARB 2240) known and is thought to represent one of the more taxonomically diverse forms, with several species historically attributed to it.

Global taxonomic diversity of anomodonts (tetrapoda, therapsida) and the terrestrial rock record across the Permian-Triassic boundary.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
The end-Permian biotic crisis (~252.5 Ma) represents the most severe extinction event in Earth's history. This paper investigates diversity patterns in Anomodontia, an extinct group of therapsid synapsids ('mammal-like reptiles'), through time and in ...

Redescription of the geikiid Pelanomodon (Therapsida, Dicynodontia), with a reconsideration of ‘Propelanomodon’

open access: yes, 2015
Cryptodont dicynodonts are some of the most abundant therapsid taxa in the upper Permian fossil record. Despite extensive taxonomic study of these families, the species diversity of geikiid cryptodonts remains problematic, particularly for the set of ...

Nomenclature, comparative anatomy, and evolution of the reflected lamina of the angular in non-mammalian synapsids

open access: yes, 2022
The reflected lamina of the angular has long been portrayed as a key component in understanding the evolution of the mammalian mandible and middle ear, yet the function of this structure in non-mammalian therapsids remains uncertain. We undertake a broad

DICYNODONT JAW MECHANISMS RECONSIDERED: THE KANNEMEYERIA (ANOMODONTIA THERAPSIDA) MASTICATORY CYCLE

open access: yesPublicación Electrónica de la Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2015
The unique feature of the dicynodont masticatory apparatus is the double-convex jaw articulation, which permitted free antero-posterior movement. Since Crompton and Hotton's demonstration of the jaw articulation, most subsequent work has argued either ...

A redescription of the Triassic kannemeyeriiform dicynodont Sangusaurus (Therapsida, Anomodontia), with an analysis of its feeding system

open access: yes, 2018
The Triassic dicynodont Sangusaurus is poorly known because the holotype of the first species to be described (S. edentatus from Zambia) is fragmentary, and the description of the second species (S.

Are Gorgonopsids (Therapsida) Sabertoothed Predators?

open access: yes
This study investigates the hunting strategies and anatomical features of gorgonopsid (Therapsida or “mammal-like reptiles” of Late Permian age, 270 - 252 mya) species, to determine whether they represent one of the first identifiable saber-toothed ...

A SHORT REVIEW OF STUDIES ON CYNODONTS

open access: yesPublicación Electrónica de la Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2015
The cynodonts, a diversified group of advanced therapsids which appeared in the fossil record at the end of the Permian, constitute an important component of many Triassic and Early Jurassic terrestrial ecosystems.
