“…The record of Paleozoic vertebrates in Brazil is extremely scarce. With the exception of the specimens found in Permian layers (discussed elsewhere) and the description of a Late Devonian tetra-pod footprint from the Paraná Basin (Leonardi, 1983), vertebrate remains from this era have only been briefly mentioned in faunal lists from Devonian strata (e.g., Katzer, 1897a, b;Kegel, 1953Kegel, , 1957Santos, 1961;Mendes and Petri, 1971;Copper, 1977).…”

A review of the vertebrate fossil diversity in Brazil is presented. The best known faunas are the fish and reptiles from the Santana Formation (both, Crato and Romualdo Members). Also comparatively well known are the mammalian faunas from Pleistocene deposits, which is the result of extensive research done in the last decades. Poorly known are the Paleozoic vertebrates, which is possible due to the limited outcrops in the country. Paradoxically, the Late Cretaceous vertebrate faunas (fishes, reptiles, and mammals) from the Bauru Group are also poorly known, despite the large extension of these sedimentary rocks in the country. Following the achievements in the last decades, continuous systematic fieldwork has to be done, with the employment of various collecting techniques (e.g., screen washing), in order to improve the knowledge about the Brazilian paleovertebrate faunas.

Long, J. A. 1990 04 15: Heterochrony and the origin of tetrapods. Lethaia, Vol. 23, pp. 157–166. Oslo. ISSN 0024–1164. Juveniles of the osteolepifonn fish Eusthenopteron show more features in common with primitive tetrapods than any other crossopterygian group. These similarities indicate that paedomorphosis may have played an important role directing anagenesis of cranial characters in the fish‐tetrapod transition. The development of the tetrapod limb, however, probably resulted from peramorphosis. The first tetrapods may have originated in the East Gondwana vertebrate Province early in the Devonian, based on the oldest known tetrapod footprints from Australia. Furthermore, the biogeographic distribution of plesiomorphic osteichthyans indicates that the monophyletic group ‘rhizodontiforms. osteolepiforms and tetrapods' most likely arose in east Gondwana.
