Pederpes gets the DGS treatment
The first known basal tetrapod with a five-toed pes is
Pederpes finneyae (Clack 2002; Tournasian, early Carboniferous, 348mya; 1m in est. length) and it is known from a fairly complete articulated skeleton. In an attempt to reconstruct the skull I have colored elements (Fig. 1) and moved those tracings to a reconstruction (Fig. 2) in which some of the broken loose pieces have been replaced to their in vivo positions.
The lacrimal, maxilla and jugal
have broken parts that fit together like puzzle pieces.
In the large reptile tree
Pederpes nests between Ichthyostega and Whatcheeria + Crassigyrinus.
