Lanthanostegus is an extinct genus of non-mammalian synapsids from the Capitanian Tapinocephalus Assemblage Zone, Koonap Formation (Beaufort Group) of South Africa. The type and the only species is Lanthanostegus mohoii.
Taxonomic history
[edit]The animal was named as Lanthanocephalus mohoii by Modesto et al. in 2002[3] but was recombined as Lanthanostegus mohoii in 2003, as the genus Lanthanocephalus was preoccupied by a coral.[2]
Phylogeny
[edit]The topology follows Duhamel et al. (2024).[4]
