• Resumen

  • The tetrapod fauna of La Mora site (Montseny massif) is located in the Buntsandstein facies at the lower part of the « Areniscas y lutitas del Figaró» unit. This fauna is found within a sandy, fluvial channel-fill and is dominated by remains of tem nospondyl amphibians. General features of the skull and the mandible indicate that these remains pertain to the genus Parotosuchus. This is a prim itive genus in the family Capitosauridae, which is typical of the continental triassic faunas around the world
