''Palatinerpeton'' is an extinct genus of temnospondyl amphibian. ==Phylogeny== ''Palatinerpeton'' is one of several Late Carboniferous and Early Permian European temnospondyls with uncertain affinities; the others include ''Iberospondylus'', ''Sclerocephalus'', and ''Cheliderpeton''. Phylogenetic studies have placed them as either early representatives of a group called Stereospondylomorpha, or close relatives of a group called Eryopidae. Stereospondylomorpha is a large clade mostly made up of Mesozoic taxa, while Eryopidae is a small family consisting of several Carboniferous and Permian temnospondyls. These two groups are usually considered distantly related. Schoch & Witzmann (2009) conducted a phylogenetic analysis in which Eryopidae and Stereospondylomorpha were found to be closely related, both members of a clade called Eryopoidea. ''Palatinerpeton'' was found to be the sister taxon of Eryopoidea. Below is a cladogram from their study:〔 |2=''Iberospondylus schultzei'' |3= |label2=Stereospondylomorpha |2= }} }} }} }} }} }} }} 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Palatinerpeton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
