Eocasea

''Eocasea'' is an extinct genus of caseid synapsid from the Late Pennsylvanian of Kansas. It is known from a single type species, ''Eocasea martini''.
==Description==

''Eocasea'' is the oldest and most basal member of Caseidae, lacking many of the specialized anatomical features that characterize later members of the group. Caseids are notable for being one of the first groups of tetrapods to evolve herbivory; large-bodied taxa such as ''Casea'' and ''Cotylorhynchus'' have barrel-shaped rib cages and leaf-shaped, serrated teeth that are clear adaptations for breaking down plant cellulose. ''Eocasea'' differs from these taxa in having a narrow rib cage, simple cone-shaped teeth, and a much smaller body size. All of these are plesiomorphic features for synapsids, meaning that ''Eocasea'' inherited a carnivorous lifestyle from similarly small-bodied carnivorous ancestors of synapsids. As the earliest known caseid, ''Eocasea'' represents one of the first transitions from carnivory to herbivory in tetrapods.
