Allokotosauria is a diverse group of archosauromorphs that existed exclusively during the Triassic and includes the clades Azendohsauridae, Trilophosauria and Kuehneosauridae (Pritchard and Nesbitt, 2017). Many had beaks, others horns and some were able to glide

On to Teraterpeton itself. The elongated skull is the most eye-catching feature, esp compared to its relatives. Interestingly, the big hole in the snout was likely an external narial fenestra. Thus, the nostrils were much farther back than in others.

Last (but not least) allokotosaur: Teraterpeton!!! This charming fellow lived during the Late Triassic in what is now Nova Scotia. Features of note include a long, toothless snout and blade-like claws.

I looked at living snakes for the coloration, just to mix things up. Trying to bring some variety to this series, although I had something more striking in my head. Might have to go crazy with Malerisaurus & Teraterpeton...

My 1st contribution to the Pamelaria, a basal allokotosaur from the Middle Triassic of India. At approximately 2m, this reptile was as long as I am tall!

Jeez, I'm at the halfway point for my Allokotosauria series already! Time flies when you're having fun I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

Late update on my Azendohsaurus reconstruction. Got the line drawing & base color, now ready for patterning. There's no such thing as too much detail!
