Oradectes
''Oradectes'' (meaning "margin biter", from Latin ''ora'' (margin) and ''dectes'' (biter)) is an extinct genus of diadectid reptiliomorph. It is known from a single partial skeleton collected from the Early Permian Cutler Formation of Colorado in the United States. The type species, ''O. sanmiguelensis'', was originally named as a species of ''Diadectes'' in 1965. It was given its own genus in 2010. ==Description== The only material belonging to ''Oradectes'' is a partial skeleton known as MCZ 2989. This skeleton includes a complete skull, neck vertebrae, a partial pectoral girdle, the right forelimb, and some ribs. The skull is robust with spade-shaped teeth lining the jaws. The front teeth of the lower jaw protrude outward. A ventral border of the Meckelian fenestra of the lower jaw formed entirely from the splenial bone is a distinguishing feature of ''Oradectes'' found in no other diadectid.
