The Mastodonsauroidea, previously and more widely known as the Capitosauroidea, ranks among the most common and best known Mesozoic temnospondyls. Mastodonsauroids exhibit wide morphological variation and significant homoplasy and their taxonomy and relationships have been in a state of flux. Since the first description of a mastodonsauroid there have been 56 genera and 118 species proposed. A comprehensive review of all these taxa has reduced the content of the group t o 14 genera and 44 species. Most species previously included in the Mastodonsauroidea are undiagnostic at the generic level and designated incertae sedis within the Mastodonsauridae, Heylerosauridae, Mastodonsauroidea or Stereospondyli. Where applicable, definitions, diagnoses and a list of synonyms of all fully diagnosable taxa within the Mastodonsauroidea are given. A computer-based phylogenetic analysis of mastodonsauroid temnospondyls based on 47 cranial characters and 25 terminal taxa was performed. The analysis included the 14 genera of mastodonsauroids as well as selected well-known members of the Lydekkerinidae and Trematosaurrdae. The results supported a monophyletic Mastodonsauroidea with Benthosuchus as the sister group to a clade consisting of the Heylerosauridae and the Mastodonsauridae. The name Mastodonsauridae replaces the name 'Capitosauridae', because Mastodonsaurus was found t o fall within the clade that includes most of the traditional 'capitosaurid genera. The composition of the Mastodonsauroidea was shown t o be similar to that traditionally assumed for the 'Capitosauroidea', and to exclude the Rhinesuchidae, a group often placed within the 'Capitosauroidea'. The Mastodonsauroidea must have a ghost lineage extending back to at least the Late Permian, when the common ancestor of the Mastodonsauroidea and the Trematosauroidea diverged from rhinesuchid ancestors. We can therefore expect to find Late Permian representatives of the Mastodonsauroidea, perhaps present as inconspicuous elements of non-stereospondyl dominated Late Permian faunas.

A very rich gastropod fauna from the upper Anisian (Nevadites secedensis Zone) platform carbonates of the Dolomites, represented by more than 200 species, was collected over recent decades. Its study contributes to a better understanding of the dynamics of the recovery after the end‐Permian mass extinction. This paper deals with the Pleurotomariida. A total of 35 species, 22 genera and 9 families have been identified. Of these, 12 species and 7 genera are new, namely Rufilla wilckensi sp. nov., Rufilla giacomellii sp. nov., Viezzenella ruvida gen. et sp. nov., Temnotropis maestroettorei sp. nov., Cancellotomaria boninsegnai sp. nov., Stuorella crenulata sp. nov., Codinella? fontanai sp. nov., Fiacconella pericincta gen. et sp. nov., Fiemmespira gen. nov., Texturaspira gen. nov., Nodocingulum ogilvieae sp. nov., Dimorphotomaria fassaensis gen. et sp. nov., Moenaspira crassa gen. et sp. nov. and Predazzella elongata gen. et sp. nov. Comparison with the gastropod fauna of the St Cassian Formation indicates that, from the late Anisian to the Carnian, in the Dolomites the richness of the Pleurotomariida increased by 54% at species level, 26% at genus level and 22% at family level. A comprehensive palaeobiogeographical analysis highlights a very high degree of endemism: 90% of the species are exclusive to single palaeogeographical units. This suggests that species diversification at a strict local scale was a major feature of the Middle Triassic phase of recovery of the Pleurotomariida. Seemingly, the non‐planktotrophic development of this group combined with a patchy resurgence of the carbonate platforms played an important role in hampering dispersal.

“…24.2), von Alberti (1834) gave precedence to Salamandroides . Later Jaeger (1837, 1838) preferred Mastodonsaurus and thereafter Salamandroides has never been used again as the name of a valid genus; even von Alberti (1864) adopted Mastodonsaurus . The strict application of the principle of priority prescribes the usage of Salamandroides , but a re‐establishment of this truly forgotten name is at odds with the continuous usage of the name Mastodonsaurus for more than 150 years.…”

REVISION OF THE TYPE MATERIAL AND NOMENCLATURE OFMASTODONSAURUS GIGANTEUS(JAEGER) (TEMNOSPONDYLI) FROM THE MIDDLE TRIASSIC OF GERMANY

The type material of Mastodonsaurus is revised and its complicated taxonomic history resolved. The genus was erected by Jaeger in 1828 without a species name, which was added subsequently by Holl (1829) who named the type species Mastodonsaurus jaegeri. The large tooth on which Jaeger based his Mastodonsaurus is chosen herein as lectotype of the type species. A smaller second individual, represented by a piece of an occiput, was also named by Jaeger in 1828 as Salamandroides giganteus and, owing to the find of a complete skull, was recognized in 1833 by the same author as belonging to the same species as the Mastodonsaurus. Therefore, Mastodonsaurus giganteus (Jaeger, 1828) is a senior subjective synonym of the type species M. jaegeri Holl, 1829. The precedence of the two generic names was chosen in 1834 by the first reviser, von Alberti, in favour of Salamandroides, but all later authors, including von Alberti himself, followed Jaeger, who decided in 1837 to retain the name Mastodonsaurus. The established usage of Mastodonsaurus is preserved formally herein (nomen protectum). The names Batrachosaurus Fitzinger, 1837, and Labyrinthodon Owen, 1841 are unjustified replacement names of Mastodonsaurus. The names M. jaegeri von Meyer, 1832, S. jaegeri von Alberti, 1834 and M. salamandroides Jaeger, 1837 are junior homonyms and synonyms of M. jaegeri Holl, 1829, and M. giganteus (Jaeger, 1828), respectively. A recent attempt to replace the universally used Capitosauroidea Watson, 1919 by the unused and newly elevated Mastodonsauroidea Lydekker, 1885 is rejected. Two older synonyms of Mastodonsauridae Lydekker, 1885 (nomen protectum) are rejected as unavailable (Labyrinthodontidae von Meyer, 1842) and nomen oblitum (Batrachosauridae Fitzinger, 1843), respectively. The holotype of Mastodonsaurus giganteus is reinstated and valid on the basis of three diagnostic features present: the tripartite posterior rim of the parasphenoid, a laterally pushed suture between the parasphenoid and basipterygoid, and a wide slit-like eustachian tube opening. Mastodonsaurus is known from specimens representing a continuous growth series, now also encompassing the lectotype of Mastodonsaurus jaegeri, which until rather recently stood isolated from other specimens as the largest find by far.
