Huskerpeton englehorni was named by Huttenlocker et al. (2013) [Small recumbirostran having a skull with a broadly triangular dorsal profile and straight occipital margin; lacrimal extremely broad; tall lacrimal dorsal process restricts prefrontal orbital participation to dorsal/medial wall of orbit; prefrontal with narrow, strap-like anterior process that stretches far rostrally to contact the external naris (narial contact shared with Tambaroter, the holotype of Micraroter, and Proxilodon); tabulars exhibit distinct medial projection into the parietal-postparietal suture area forming a parietal pair that is widely pentagonal or subtriangular in shape (shared with Tambaroter); tall dorsal and ventral processes of the lacrimal and postorbital elements form the entire anterior and posterior borders of the orbit (also shared with Tambaroter). Differs from Tambaroter in its smaller size, modest degree of cheek emargination, absence of pineal foramen, elongate cultriform process of parasphenoid that reaches the contact between the pterygoids and vomers, apparent absence of denticles on the parasphenoid.]. Its type specimen is UNSM 32144, a partial skeleton (Nearly complete skull with both lower jaws and articulated atlas-axis complex), and it is a 3D body fossil. Its type locality is Mayer Farm, which is in an Asselian pond siltstone in the Eskridge Formation of Nebraska.
