Barremian

The Barremian is an age in the geologic timescale (or a chronostratigraphic stage) between 125.77 Ma (million years ago) and 121.4 ± 1.0 Ma (Historically, this stage was placed at 129.4 million to approximately 125 million years ago) It is a subdivision of the Early Cretaceous Epoch (or Lower Cretaceous Series).

See Stereognathus and Barremian

Bathonian

In the geologic timescale the Bathonian is an age and stage of the Middle Jurassic.

See Stereognathus and Bathonian

Cynodontia

Cynodontia is a clade of eutheriodont therapsids that first appeared in the Late Permian (approximately 260 mya), and extensively diversified after the Permian–Triassic extinction event.

Polistodon

Polistodon is an extinct genus of tritylodonts from the Bajocian or Callovian (Middle Jurassic) of China. Stereognathus and Polistodon are cynodont stubs and Tritylodontids.

R. J. G. Savage

Robert Joseph Gay Savage (2 July 1927 – 9 May 1998) was a British palaeontologist known as Britain's leading expert on fossil mammals.

Synonym (taxonomy)

The Botanical and Zoological Codes of nomenclature treat the concept of synonymy differently.

Tritylodontidae

Tritylodontidae ("three-knob teeth", named after the shape of their cheek teeth) is an extinct family of small to medium-sized, highly specialized mammal-like cynodonts, with several mammalian traits including erect limbs, endothermy and details of the skeleton. Stereognathus and Tritylodontidae are Tritylodontids.
