Fusel Vertebra has revealed the hidden diversity of ancient crawling animals before the Earth’s largest mass disappears

An international research team from the Museum Furour Network Berlin and Buenos Aires and Washington DC has identified a new gossip from Central Germany, offering fresh insights in Arcosuromorphus’s early evolutionary history.

In the 1990s, 255 million -year -old Jovashim was detected in the famous Corbach Fusel area in the national geopark Greenzelton and has now been examined for the first time. This discovery helps eliminate a significant difference in the fossil record that is eventually the most destructive extinction in the history of the Earth, before the premiere is widespread. Have appeared in the results Journal of Systemic Palovonatology.

The upper Permane Corbach Fisher, who is filled in the northern Hees, represents an area of a unique gems, which provides a rare window in the continental tetraped environmental system from the last premieen widespread expiry. Corbach is famous for the early Satyandari’s prokinosochos, the so -called Corbach Dachand’s hypertension.

However, scientists have now described a single, well -protected neck -based arcosoromorf -crawled animal -based animal species. The foam shows separate anatomatic properties in which researchers nominated it as a new generation and species Holotype: Monstophys Coleki.

“This discovery is particularly important because the Permanent Archosoromorphus is extremely rare, with only five recognized species,” says Dr. Martin Aizacorra, the central author of the research. “Mantropse Kolkata gives us a clear theory of how diverse this group was already before being extinct.”

The properties of the wrestler are a long, parallel -shaped censorship and a unique lump that is late and closer to the back edge of Kisherka, which also gives its new generation its name.

Therefore, the sample shows similarly with the early arcoromorphus, but also shows separate features that are not seen in other famous Permo Traysk Diapsides. A comprehensive phylogenatic analysis puts Mantropyus Cologki at the Arcosoromorpha base, which suggests that it is among the early members of this major creeping lineage.

This study also used ethical diversity analysis to evaluate the variety in the neck rash over time. The results suggest that arcosoromorphs were already morally diverse before the extinction, and that their neck’s anatomy was rapidly diversified in the initial trays – according to previous research, faster than other parts of this skeleton.

In the 1990s, the Corbach Fazor leader and co -author of the study notes from the Smithsonian Institution, “This Gwash not only revealed a new generation, but also supports the idea that there is a ‘secret’ diversity of Archosoromorphs in Permane.

Co -author of the museum, Professor Jorg Farbashch, has called on the Museum Furour Naturalland Berlin, “The area of Corbach is proving to be an important site for understanding a lesser life in Super Contract Panjia before the largest alliance in the history of the land.”

Less well -well -known Jovam sites indicate the importance of ancient research, especially those that can maintain a glimpse of the ecosystem on the brink of extinction.
