Mesozoic and Tertiary Anura of Laurasia
Original language description
Anurans of Laurasia have a long history that begins with the earliest known anuran, Prosalirus, from the Early Jurassic of Arizona, USA. At that time, western Laurasia (North America) was still connected with Gondwana, so faunal interchange was still possible between those parts of the former Pangean supercontinent. The anuran fossil record from the Jurassic and Cretaceous of Laurasia is mainly represented by disarticulated skeletal elements similar to those of Prosalirus (e.g. amphicoelous vertebrae indicating the presence of continuous notochord; ilia without dorsal crest and dorsal tubercle; small body size). Because the morphology of the ilium, the most commonly preserved element of Mesozoic anurans, superficially recalls that of Recent Alytes, Bombina or Pelobates, Mesozoic anurans often were assigned to discoglossids and pelobatids. The Cretaceous portion of the Laurasian anuran record is marked by the appearance of procoelous and opisthocoelous vertebrae, ilia bearing a dorsal c
