About: Endothiodon

An Entity of Type: WikicatDicynodonts, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Endothiodon (/ɛndoʊθiːoʊdɔːn/ "inner tooth" from Greek endothi (ἔνδοθῐ), "within", and odon (ὀδών), "tooth", most likely named for the characteristic of the teeth being placed internally to the maxilla) is an extinct genus of large dicynodont from the Late Permian. Like other dicynodonts, Endothiodon was an herbivore, but it lacked the two tusks that characterized most other dicynodonts. The anterior portion of the upper and lower jaw are curved upward, creating a distinct beak that is thought to have allowed them to be specialized grazers.

dbo:abstract
  • Endothiodon és un gènere extint de sinàpsids que visqueren durant el Permià mitjà i superior a Àfrica, Sud-amèrica i el subcontinent indi, que en aquell temps formaven part del sud del supercontinent de Gondwana. Se n'han trobat restes fòssils al Brasil, Malawi, l'Índia, Sud-àfrica, Tanzània i Zàmbia. Igual que els altres dicinodonts, era un animal herbívor. El nom genèric Endothiodon deriva dels mots grecs antics ἔνδοθι (éndothi), que significa 'dintre', i ὀδών (odon), que significa 'dent', i en el seu conjunt vol dir 'dent interna'. (ca)

Like other dicynodonts, Endothiodon was an herbivore, but it lacked the two tusks that characterized most other dicynodonts. The anterior portion of the upper and lower jaw are curved upward, creating a distinct beak that is thought to have allowed them to be specialized grazers. Endothiodon was widespread and is found across the southern region of what was then a single large continent known as Pangea. It was originally only found in southern Africa but has now also been found in India and Brazil, which were both close to Africa at the time. The finding in Brazil marks the first dicynodont to be reported for the Permian of South America. This finding also shows that part of the Rio do Rasto Formation in Brazil can now be correlated with deposits in India, Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Originally there were thought to be nine species, but this was reduced down to just 3 species. A fourth species was later discovered. The four currently known species of Endothiodon are E. bathystoma, E. uniseries, E. whaitsi, and E. mahalanobsi. However, the basic distinction among the four species is size, which leads some to believe that E. uniseries, E. bathystoma, and E. whaitsi may actually represent an ontogenetic series rather than three distinct taxa. E. mahalanobsi, on the other hand, is most likely a separate, truly smaller species based on the size of both juvenile and adult forms that have been found. Apart from size, E. mahalanobsi also has a single longitudinal ridge on the snout (compared to three on the other species), a lower position of the pineal boss, and a swollen prefrontal bone. (en)
  • L'endoziodonte (gen. Endothiodon) è un terapside estinto appartenente ai dicinodonti. Visse nel Permiano superiore (circa 259 - 252 milioni di anni fa) e i suoi resti fossili sono stati ritrovati in Africa, Asia e Sudamerica. (it)
  • Endothiodon is een dier uit de Dicynodontia dat leefde tijdens het Laat-Perm. Endothiodon was in het Laat-Perm wijdverspreid over zuidelijk Gondwana met fossiele vondsten in Zuid-Afrika (Beaufortgroep), Zambia (Madumabisa Mudstones), Tanzania (Usili-formatie), Mozambique, Brazilië (Rio do Rasto-formatie) en India (Kundaram-formatie). Endothiodon was een van de grootste dicynodonten van het Perm met een schedellengte tot een halve meter. Het had een relatief grote kop met een stompe snuit. Endothiodon had geen slagtanden, maar wel kleine tanden in de achterste delen van de beide kaken. Het lichaam was robuust en tonvormig, waarbij de poten naar opzij uitstonden. (nl)
