I have three specimens of Apateon fossils in my collection. They are all from the Niederhausen region in Germany. Two of them are supposed to be Apateon pedestris, the third (the litlle fat one) is a Branchiosaurus Petrolei. But, Petrolei is an obsolete name and identical to pedestris, am I correct? Thanx for any feedback.

Branchiosaurus (Apateon pedestris) specimen
Owl_Roker posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello Fossil Folks, I am considering bidding on the below Branchiosaurus (Apateon pedestris) specimen. Description says it is from the Permian Period (c. 290.1–283.5 Ma)—recovered in Germany. What is your take on the (1) authenticity and (2) prep work? If you have seen similar specimens, how does this one compare in terms of overall quality? Thanks, Robert- 35 replies

Hello everybody, for years, I have an exhibit in my collection that I suspect is a large branchiosaur or apateon. In the attached photos of 2 wonderful finds( 2 times a lucky hit !!) from Apateon from the same fund layer one recognizes the difference in size clearly, on the back of the dolomitized lime clay stone is a skull fragment, the tip of a micromelerpeton .... also this individual was of the skull proportions smaller than "the Unknown". What then could this fossil be? -a new kind, perhaps? Unfortunately I know of A. caducus no originals or reference photos. The guy looks just like a normal Apateon pedestris but is as big as a Micromelerpeton credneri ... ??? Who has an idea or perhaps knows this amphib? I look forward to your answers - thanks Description: Location: Kalkbank von Callbach Permo-Carboniferous Underperm 290 million years Meisenheim Formation Odernheimer subformation Length of skull - pelvis 7 cm Length of tail 4 cm available ....
