Proexaeretodon
Extinct genus of cynodonts
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Proexaeretodon is a genus of traversodontid from the Late Triassic (Carnian) Ischigualasto Formation of Argentina.[1] Although long considered a junior synonym of Exaeretodon, Schmitt et al. revalidated this genus in 2023 based on comparisons with Santagnathus.[2]
