The vertebrate fauna from the stipite layers of the Grands Causses (Middle Jurassic, France) by Fabien eKnoll, Fabien eKnoll, Raquel eLópez-Antoñanzas, Raquel eLópez-Antoñanzas

“…These record the presence of sharks (Hybodus, Asteracanthus), bony fishes (Lepidotes, Pycnodontiformes, Caturus, Aspidorhynchus), amphibians (Anura, Albanerpetontidae), and reptiles (Crocodylomorpha, Ornithischia, Theropoda). Despite its relatively limited taxonomic diversity, the vertebrate assemblage from the stipites and from their associated layers is notable for being one of the few of this age with both terrestrial and marine influences. …”
