- Permo-Carboniferous
Cleanup date January 2008 Unreferenced date January 2008 The Permo Carboniferous refers to de time period including the latter parts of the Carboniferous and early part of the Permian period. Permo Carboniferous rocks are in places not differentiated because of the presence of transitional fossil s, and also where no conspicuous stratigraphic break is present. Permo Carboniferous time, about 300 million years ago, was a period of great glaciation. The widespread distribution of Permo Carboniferous glacial sediments in South America, Africa, Madagascar, Arabia, India, Antarctica and Australia was one of the major pieces of evidence for the theory of continental drift , and led ultimately to the concept of a super continent, Pangaea . Glacial activity spanned virtually the whole of Carboniferous and Early Permian time A.G. Smith, 1997 . Toward the end of the Carboniferous, around 290 million years ago, Gondwana , the southern part of Pangaea, was located near the south pole. Glacial centres expanded across the continents, producing glacial tillite s and striations in pre existing rocks. The Permo Carboniferous ice sheet was so extensive that it would occupy a circle spanning 50 degrees of latitude centered on the pole A.G. Smith, 1997 .

- Carboniferous tetrapods
Carboniferous Tetrapods include amphibians and reptiles that lived during the Carboniferous Carboniferous Period . During this time, amphibian s including many extinct groups unrelated to modern forms, referred to as basal tetrapods were the predominant tetrapods, and included the Temnospondyli , Lepospondyli , and Reptiliomorpha Batrachosauria . The first amniote s appeared during the middle Carboniferous Early Pennsylvanian , and included both Sauropsid s and Synapsid s, but it was not until the very end of the Carboniferous that the reptiles began to diversify. Classification The following list of families of Carboniferous tetrapods is based mostly on Benton ed. 1993. The classification follows http www.blackwellpublishing.com book.asp?ref 0632056371&site 1 Benton 2004 Superclass Tetrapod a Basal Tetrapods Family Whatcheeriidae Family Crassigyrinus Crassigyrinidae Family Loxommatidae Baphetidae Loxommatidae Family Colosteidae Family Caerorhachidae Class Amphibia Order Temnospondyli Family Dendrerpetontidae Family Cochleosauridae Family Trimerorhachidae Family Eugyrinidae Family Saurerpetontidae Family Eryopidae Family Trematopidae Family Dissorophidae Family Micromelerpetontidae Family Branchiosauridae Family Amphibamidae Superorder Lepospondyli Order A stopoda Family Ophiderpetontidae Family Phlegethontiidae Order Incertae Sedis Family Acherontiscidae Family Adelogyrinidae Order Nectridea Family Diplocaulidae Family Scincosauridae Family Urocordylidae Order Microsauria Utaherpeton Family Microbrachidae Family Hyloplesiontidae Family Odonterpetontidae Family Tuditanidae Family Pantylidae Family Gymnarthridae Family Trihecatontidae Family Cocytinidae Superorder Reptiliomorpha Order Anthracosauria Family Eoherpeton tidae Family Proterogyrinidae Family Anthracosauridae Family Eogyrinidae Family Archeriidae Order Gephyrostegida Family Gephyrostegidae Order Seymouriamorpha ...
