ANATOMICAL NOTES AND DISCUSSION OF THE FIRST DESCRIBED AETOSAUR STAGONOLEPIS ROBERTSONI (ARCHOSAURIA: SUCHIA) FROM THE UPPER TRIASSIC OF EUROPE, AND THE USE OF PLESIOMORPHIES IN AETOSAUR BIOCHRONOLOGY

Anatomical notes and discussion of the first described aetosaur Stagonolepis robertsoni (Archosauria: Suchia) from the Upper Triassic of Europe, and the use of plesiomorphies in aetosaur biochronology

Stagonolepis robertsoni, from the Late Triassic of Scotland, was the first named aetosaurian.Known mostly from a series of natural molds from two localities, the osteology of this taxon has been difficult to interpret.Detailed work on this material in the late 1950s resulted in a monograph that set the Enhancer standard for the understanding of aet
