Palaeohatteriidae [1] is an extinct family of basal sphenacodonts known from the Early Permian period (Asselian-Sakmarian stages) of Saxony, Germany. [2] Two genera are known: Palaeohatteria [3] and Pantelosaurus . [4]
The cladogram below shows the phylogenetic positions of Palaeohatteria and Pantelosaurus phylogenetic position among other sphenacodonts following Fröbisch et al. (2011). [5]
Spindler (2016) utilized use of the name Palaeohatteriidae for the clade comprising Palaeohatteria and Pantelosaurus but not Ianthodon . [2]
