A tiny Triassic saurian from Connecticut and the early evolution of the diapsid feeding apparatus
The Triassic fossil record is biased towards large species, obscuring the anatomical diversity of small species. Here, the authors describe a new species, Colobops noviportensis, based on a 2.5 cm-long skull with proportionally large attachments for jaw muscles, expanding the known diversity of earl...
