Keratobrachyops
Extinct genus of amphibians
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Keratobrachyops is an extinct genus of trematosaurian temnospondyl found in the Arcadia Formation of Queensland, Australia.[1] It had been thought to be a basal chigutisaurid but is now thought to be a basal brachyopomorph closely related to the genus Bothriceps, and may even be a synonym of it.[2][3]
