Prosiren is an extinct genus of prehistoric amphibian in the family Prosirenidae. It was originally placed in the family Sirenidae. [1]
The Alytidae are a family of primitive frogs. Their common name is painted frogs or midwife toads. Most are endemic to Europe, but three species occur in northwest Africa, and a species formerly thought to be extinct is found in Israel.
Arcadia is an extinct genus of temnospondyl amphibians in the family Rhytidosteidae from the early Triassic. The remains were found in and named after the Arcadia Formation of Australia.
Bashkirosaurus is an extinct genus of archegosauroidean temnospondyl within the family Archegosauridae. Locality: Belebei locality, Belebeiskii District, Bashkortostan (Bashkiry) Province, Western Cisuraly, European Russia.
Chomatobatrachus is a genus of prehistoric temnospondyl from the Triassic.
Erythrobatrachus is an extinct genus of trematosaurian temnospondyl within the family Trematosauridae. The sole species Erythrobatrachus noonkanbahensis was separated to a monotypic genus, distinguishing it from related taxa when the description was published in 1972. The type material was a matrix cast revealing the impression of several fragments of skull excavated at the Blina Shale formation in the northwest of the Australian continent. The genus name is derived from ancient Greek, combining terms for red, erythro, with frog, batrachos, to describe the iron staining of the fossilised amphibian specimens. The type location described by the specific epithet was Noonkanbah Station.
Icanosaurus is an extinct genus of trematosaurian temnospondyl within the family Trematosauridae.
Nannospondylus is an extinct genus of dvinosaurian temnospondyl within the family Trimerorhachidae. It is known from the Chickasha Formation in Oklahoma.
Lyrocephaliscus is an extinct genus of trematosaurian temnospondyl within the family Trematosauridae.
Limnerpeton is an extinct genus of dissorophoidean euskelian temnospondyl within the family Amphibamidae.
Lafonius is an extinct genus dvinosaurian temnospondyl within the family Trimerorhachidae. It is known from Carboniferous of New Mexico.
Kestrosaurus, occasionally misspelt as Kerstisaurus, is an extinct genus of Triassic capitosauroid temnospondyl within the family Mastodonsauridae.
Osteophorus is an extinct genus of eryopoidean temnospondyl within the family Eryopidae. It is only known from the Permian of Poland.
Rhinesuchoides is an extinct genus of temnospondyls in the family Rhinesuchidae. It contains two species, R. tenuiceps and R. capensis, both from the Karoo Supergroup of South Africa. The latter was formerly a species of Rhinesuchus.
