Hypsognathus (from Шаблон:Lang-el Шаблон:Transl, 'height' and Шаблон:Lang-el Шаблон:Transl, 'jaw') is an extinct genus of procolophonid parareptile from the Late Triassic of New Jersey, Connecticut, and Nova Scotia.[1]
Hypsognathus resembled a moderately sized lizard, with a length of Шаблон:Convert, although it was unrelated to modern lizards. Because of its broad teeth, Hypsognathus is thought to have been a herbivore. Its body is low and broad and it has a relatively short tail. Hypsognathus has some spikes on the side of its head, probably for protection against predators.[2]
Multiple specimens from the Magnesian Conglomerate of England that were discovered during the 1970s by Jeanne Evans were initially referred to cf. Hypsognathus in 2016[3] before being moved to a separate species, Hwiccewyrm trispiculum in 2023.[4]
