Clepsydrops
''Clepsydrops'' was a primitive amniote from the early Late Carboniferous that was related to ''Archaeothyris'' and the synapsids—the ancestors of mammals. Like many other terrestrial early amniotes, it probably had the diet of insects and smaller animals. It probably also laid eggs on land rather than in the water, as most of its ancestors did. A paleobiological inference model for the femur likewise suggests a terrestrial lifestyle for ''Clepsydrops'', as for its more recent relative''Ophiacodon'', which is consistent with its rather thin, compact cortex. Its jaws were slightly more advanced than ''Paleothyris'', and ''Hylonomus''. ==See also==
