In Depth
Anomoiodon was a tiny little parareptile that lived in Germany in the early Triassic. Another genus of parareptile named Kapes was once considered to be a synonym of Anomoiodon, but rediscovery of fossils and new study have now re-confirmed them to be separate genera. There are however considered to be very closely related to one another.
