Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone (original) (raw)
The Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone is a tetrapod assemblage zone or biozone which correlates to the lower Teekloof Formation, Adelaide Subgroup of the Beaufort Group, a fossiliferous and geologically important geological Group of the Karoo Supergroup in South Africa. The thickest outcrops, reaching approximately 240 metres (790 ft), occur from east of Sutherland through to Beaufort West and Victoria West, to areas south of Graaff-Reinet. Its northernmost exposures occur west/north-west of Colesberg. The Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone is the fourth biozone of the Beaufort Group.

| dbo:abstract | The Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone is a tetrapod assemblage zone or biozone which correlates to the lower Teekloof Formation, Adelaide Subgroup of the Beaufort Group, a fossiliferous and geologically important geological Group of the Karoo Supergroup in South Africa. The thickest outcrops, reaching approximately 240 metres (790 ft), occur from east of Sutherland through to Beaufort West and Victoria West, to areas south of Graaff-Reinet. Its northernmost exposures occur west/north-west of Colesberg. The Tropidostoma Assemblage Zone is the fourth biozone of the Beaufort Group. The name of the biozone refers to Tropidostoma microtrema, a herbivorous dicynodont therapsid. This biozone is characterized by the presence of this species in association with another dicynodont species, Endothiodon uniseries. (en) De Tropidostoma-faunazone is een onderdeel van de Beaufortgroep met fossielen uit het Laat-Perm. Gorgonopsiërs, therocephaliërs, dicynodonten en pareiasauriërs, groepen die in de voorgaande Tapinocephalus-faunazone in de schaduw van de dinocephaliërs leefden, kwamen tot ontwikkeling. Bovendien evolueerden de eerste cynodonten met Charassognathus en Procynosuchus als bekende soorten uit de Tropidostoma-faunazone. De gorgonopsiërs waren de dominerende landroofdieren, met onder meer en Lycaenops als vertegenwoordigers in de Tropidostoma-faunazone. Andere carnivoren uit deze faunazone zijn therocephaliërs zoals Ictidosuchoides en de biarmosuchiërs en . De pareiasauriërs, waaronder Pareiasaurus, hadden de plek van de herbivore dinocephaliërs ingenomen. Diverse vormen dicynodonten zijn bekend uit deze faunazone, waaronder de naamgevende , Diictodon met bijna tweehonderd bekende fossielen, , Endothiodon, en . Naast de therapsiden en pareiasauriërs ontwikkelden zijn ook verschillende andere groepen. (nl) |
