The vertebrate fauna of the Upper Permian of Niger — II, Preliminary description of a new pareiasaur

Sidor, Christian A.; Blackburn, David C.; Gado, Boube (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

The skull of a new pareiasaur, Bunostegos akokanensis gen. et sp. nov., is described on the basis of a partial skull from the Upper Permian Moradi Formation of north-central Niger. Autapomorphies of the genus include the ...
The formation and sedimentary infilling of the Limeworks Cave, Makapansgat, South Africa

Latham, Alfred G.; Herries, Andy I. R.; Kuykendall, K. (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

The remnant cavern of the Limeworks australopithecine site has a number of special features. Firstly, unlike Swartkrans and Sterkfontein, which developed in relatively flat relief, the Limeworks Cave developed as part of ...
A taxonomic note concerning a dicynodont (Synapsida: Anomodontia) from the Middle Triassic of East Africa

Renaut, A. J.; Damiani, R. J.; Hancox, P. J. (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

The complicated histories of the Indian dicynodont Rechnisaurus and the East African dicynodont Kannemeyeria cristarhynchus has led to the incorrect use of the name ‘cristarhynchus’ for the latter taxon. This paper therefore ...
Preservation and interpretation of pollen in hyaena coprolites: taphonomic observations from Spain and southern Africa

Scott, Louis; Fernandez-Jalvo, Yolanda; Carrion, Jose; Brink, James (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

A survey of palynological research on hyaena coprolites from 10 fossil sites in southern Africa and 4 from Spain shows that coprolites from 10 out of the 14 sites contained fossil pollen. Pollen-bearing coprolites are ...
Barendskraal, a diverse amniote locality from the Lystrosaurus Assemblage Zone, Early Triassic of South Africa

Damiani, Ross; Neveling, Johann; Modesto, Sean; Yates, Adam (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

A diverse amniote fauna has been recovered from Lower Triassic Lystrosaurus Assemblage Zone exposures on the farm Barendskraal, near Middelburg in Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. The fauna includes the dicynodont ...
A definite prosauropod dinosaur from the Lower Elliot Formation (Norian: Upper Triassic) of South Africa

Yates, Adam M. (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

A new sauropodomorph dinosaur specimen is described and identified as a prosauropod. It is tentatively placed as the sister taxon of Riojasaurus incertus from Argentina. The systematic position of all commonly accepted ...
Biological aspects of the Permian dicynodont Oudenodon (Therapsida: Dicynodontia) deduced from bone histology and cross-sectional geometry

Botha, Jennifer (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003)

Bone histology and cross-sectional geometry were used to examine the growth patterns and lifestyle habits of the Late Permian dicynodont, Oudenodon. Several limb bones were analysed, revealing rapidly deposited fibro-lamellar ...
A review of Robert Broom’s therapsid holotypes: have they survived the test of time?

Wyllie, Alistair (BERNARD PRICE INSTITUTE FOR PALAEONTOLOGICAL RESEARCH, 2003)

While still a medical student in Scotland in the late 1880s, Robert Broom had already identified the principal aim of his scientific career as being ‘to solve the problem of the origin of the mammals’. In Australia, between ...
A review of the South African temnospondyl amphibian record

Damiani, RJ; Rubidge, BS (Bernard Price Institute for Palaeontological Research, 2003-12)

The Karoo of South Africa preserves a near-unbroken sequence of sedimentary rocks and associated vertebrate fauna from the Late Carboniferous to the Middle Jurassic periods. These rocks host a rich temnospondyl amphibian ...
