Postcranial morphology of the Early Triassic epicynodont Galesaurus planiceps (Owen) from the Karoo Basin, South Africa
(Wiley, 2018-06)
The Early Triassic non-mammaliaform epicynodont Galesaurus planiceps formed an important part of ecosystems following the Permo-Triassic Mass Extinction, the greatest mass extinction in Phanerozoic history. Here, we ...
The rise of the ruling reptiles and ecosystem recovery from the Permo-Triassic mass extinction
(The Royal Society, 2018-06)
One of the key faunal transitions in Earth history occurred after the Permo-Triassic mass extinction (ca 252.2 Ma), when the previously obscure archosauromorphs (which include crocodylians, dinosaurs and birds) become the ...
The manus of Tetracynodon (Therapsida: Therocephalia) provides evidence for survival strategies following the Permo-Triassic extinction
(Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2018-07)
We present a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative study of the manus of a new therocephalian specimen referable to Tetracynodon from the Early Triassic of South Africa. We examined 18 specimens, representing at least ...
Can social and sexual selection explain the bizarre snout of proterosuchid archosauriforms?
(Taylor & Francis, 2016-03)
Proterosuchids are a clade of quadrupedal, carnivorous Permo-Triassic diapsids crucial to understand the successful evolutionary radiation of archosaurs during the Mesozoic. The importance and good fossil record of ...
The stem-archosaur evolutionary radiation in South America
(2021-01-01)
The oldest archosauromorphs (dinosaurs, birds, crocodiles, and their stem-taxa) are recorded in middle−upper Permian rocks, but it was not after the Permo−Triassic mass extinction that the group shows a substantially high ...
The anatomy and phylogenetic position of the erythrosuchid archosauriform Guchengosuchus shiguaiensis from the earliest Middle Triassic of China
(PeerJ Inc, 2019-02)
Erythrosuchidae is a clade of early archosauriform reptiles, which were apex predators in many late Early and Middle Triassic ecosystems, following the Permo-Triassic mass extinction. Erythrosuchids had a worldwide ...
The last erythrosuchid-a revision of Chalishevia cothurnata from the late Middle Triassic of European Russia
(Polish Academy of Sciences. Institute of Paleobiology, 2019-10)
Erythrosuchidae is a clade of early archosauriform reptiles that were large-bodied, hypercarnivorous, possibly apex predators in late Early and Middle Triassic ecosystems following the Permo-Triassic mass extinction. ...
Geochronological constraints on the age of a Permo-Triassic impact event: U-Pb and Ar-40/Ar-39 results for the 40 km Araguainha structure of central Brazil
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LtdOxford, 2012)
The phylogenetic relationships of basal archosauromorphs, with an emphasis on the systematics of proterosuchian archosauriforms
(PeerJ, 2016-04)
The early evolution of archosauromorphs during the Permo-Triassic constitutes an excellent empirical case study to shed light on evolutionary radiations in deep time and the timing and processes of recovery of terrestrial ...
