...RICHARD A. KISSEL; THOMAS M. LEHMAN Abstract A recently discovered tetrapod-bearing locality (OMNH V1005) in the Upper Pennsylvanian Ada Formation of Oklahoma has produced the remains of six taxa: the pelycosaurian-grade synapsid Ophiacodon cf. mirus , an indeterminate sphenacodontian pelycosaur...

Phylogeny. (A) Strict consensus of the five most parsimonious trees. Each tree requires 97 steps, has a consistency index of 0.6907, a CI excluding uninformative characters of 0.6842, a retention index of 0.8101, and a rescaled consistency index of 0.5596. (B) 50% majority-rule consensus tree of the five most parsimonious trees. The numbers next to the nodes represent the bootstrap frequency and the decay index, respectively. Varanopidae Romer and Price 1940 (converted clade name) is defined as all taxa that are more closely related to Varanops brevirostris than to Ophiacodon mirus, Edaphosaurus cruciger, and Sphenacodon ferox.

Varanopid phylogeny and the fossil record. Ghost lineages are indicated by dashed lines. Cotylorhynchus and Eothyris have been selected as representatives of the caseasaurian families Caseidae and Eothyrididae, respectively; Archaeothyris and Ophiacodon have been selected as representatives of the eupelycosaurian family Ophiacodontidae. Other synapsid taxa were not included because the basic pattern of eupelycosaurian relationships, including the position of ophiacodontids, is well resolved (Berman et al. 1995). The primitive character states for the clade Reptilia were reconstructed by examining Mesosaurus, Milleretta, and Captorhinus. In this phylogeny, Reptilia and Synapsida are sister taxa, representing a basal dichotomy of Amniota.

Figure 4. Cladogram of lower-level relationships among synapsids used herein. Appendix 1 includes a rationale for this specific topology. A taxon's patristic distance (PD) is calculated as the number of nodes passed from the base of this cladogram. For example, the ophiacodontids Varanosaurus and Ophiacodon each have a PD of 4. The most primitive cynodont, Dvinia, has a PD of 13 and illustrates the fact that singleton taxa attaching directly to the spine of the cladogram have PD and clade ranks (CR) of equal value. PDs for each terminal taxon are given in Appendix 4. CGP 1/61 refers to a new burnetiamorph housed in the collections of the Council for GeoSciences, Pretoria (Sidor 2000). SAM-PK-K9954 refers to a new galesaurid housed in the South African Museum, Cape Town (Sidor and Smith in press). Hamilton Form refers to a new, primitive varanopseid (Reisz and Dilkes 2003). ”Estemmenosuchus-m” refers to E. mirabilis, “Estemmenosuchus-u” to E. uralensis, ”Probelesodon-lew.” to P. lewisi, and ”Probelesodon-san.” to P. sanjuanensis

Thus, in baphetids, Eoherpeton, and most embolomeres only the absence of the lateral sutures prevents the recognition of paired supraoccipitals as occur in L. dynatis. Perhaps the paired supraoccipitals...
