In the pattern of skull bones, relatively small temporal fenestra and structure of the lower jaw they are not too dissimilar from pelycosaurs. King (1988) noted characters shared by dinocephalians and the herbivorous therapsid group EVOLUTION OF MAMMAL-LIKE REPTILES 35 (f) Jonkeria Dicynodontia. Accordingly, she placed the two together as the Anomodontia, a hypothesis doubted by Kemp (1988) and rejected outright by Hopson and Barghusen (1986) and Grine (1997). The present consensus is that Dinocephalia is basal to both

Not very much has been added to the available knowledge of the phylogeny and biology of this TITANOSUCHIA BRITHOPIA Tapinocephalidae Titanosuchidae rather unfashionable group since Kemp’s (1982) review. There is a clear division of the dinocephalians into two subgroups (Fig. 3.10). The Brithopia are primitive carnivores and the Titanosuchia are Figure 3.10 Cladogram of representatives of the main dinocephalian groups (modified from various sources).
