Description

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Sarıgül, Volkan, Agnolín, Federico, Chatterjee, Sankar (2018): Descriptionofamultitaxicbone Assemblagefromtheuppertriassic P O S T Q U A R Ry O F T E X A S (D O C K U M G R O U P), I N C L U D In G A N E W S Ma L L B A S A L Dinosauriformtaxon. Historia Natural 8 (1): 5-24, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15724747 Abstract. A bone assemblage composed of intermixed small cranial and postcranial fragments from the Post Quarry of Texas, USA, is described.

The skeletal elements represent multiple individuals of different taxa, including a partial dorsal column assigned to Vancleavea campi and an incomplete dentary referred to a new genus and species of a small-sized basal dinosauriform. Ankylothecodont dental implantation of the dinosauriform dentary bears strong resemblance to silesaurids. A fragmentary archosauromorph braincase is another intriguing element of the assemblage; it displays a striking contrast of a derived otoccipital on a plesiomorphic basioccipital.

Poor preservation prevents more conclusive taxonomic assignments for the rest of the skeletal elements. The observed attrition and entangling in this bone assemblage reflect the complexities of the Dockum land tetrapod taphonomy.
