Bobby Rico Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Ok I also think it is time for us to see more of the members collections . So without further ado show us your Sphenacodontidae collection . is an extinct family of small to large, advanced, carnivorous, Late Pennsylvanian to middle Permian pelycosaurs. Sphenacodontid fossils are so far known only from North America and Europe and have one of the most ironic creature ever to have lived in there ranks, Dimetrodon. And a claw from the same location. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could get one really cheap, like super clearanced, I'd get one too. Ive seen some full metro reproductions for sale recently, I guess they're popular. One is just half mounted against a body shaped background wall, but I count that as a "full skeleton" repro, just with and asterisk next to it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
