| T. Sulej 2007 (Metoposaurus diagnosticus krasiejowensis) | "Very short prepineal part of the parietal with the high value of the expansion angle of the sutures separating the parietal from the supratemporal, the mean value for the angle is 21.81 (standard deviation 3.51); ontogenetically, the length of the parietal follows the regression formula y = 0.29x – 5.74 (y, length of prepineal part of parietal; x, skull width). After Sulej (2002)." |
