Taxon Material Notes
Metoposauridae indet. An interclavicle, skull fragments, and intercentra Indeterminate metoposaurid remains similar to those of Indian metoposaurids. Some fossils were the basis for the dubious species "Metoposaurus hoffmani". May be from Isalo II or III.[3]
Stereospondyli indet. Interclavicles Indeterminate stereospondyl remains. May be from Isalo II or III.[3]

Reptiles

Synapsids
Taxon Material Notes
Archosauriformes sp. Teeth, a coracoid, a centrum fragment, and cranial fragments Various indeterminate fragments, some of which may belong to dinosaurs.[4]
Azendohsaurus madagaskarensis[5] Numerous skulls and postcranial fossils[1] An allokotosaurian archosauromorph,[6][7][1] originally mistakenly identified as a "prosauropod" dinosaur.[5]
Isalorhynchus genovefae Numerous fossils representing parts of the skull and postcrania A rhynchosaur sometimes considered a species of Hyperodapedon.[8] Possibly represents two taxa.[9] Reported sphenodontian[5] fossils are most likely juvenile rhynchosaurs instead.[10]
Kongonaphon kely[11] A maxilla and postcranial material A tiny lagerpetid avemetatarsalian[12]
Mambachiton fiandohana[13] A partial skeleton An armored basal avemetatarsalian[14]
Phytosauria indet. Teeth Similar to Rutiodon teeth.[4]
Procolophonidae sp. A jaw fragment and other remains An unnamed procolophonid parareptile[8]
Pseudosuchia indet. Osteoderms Likely referable to stagonolepid aetosaurs, though similar to goniopholidid crocodylomorphs as well.[4]
