Abstract

B! C. C. YOUNG (4) (National Geólogica1 Survey of China) All the triassic reptiles so far described from Sinkiang were Dicynodontia. It is therefore of special interest to describe from the same formation a completely different, carnivorous type belonging to the Sub-order Pelycosimia of the Thecodontia. The specimen was discovered by Prof. P. L. Yuan in the same Fuyuan area as the Dicynodont forms, but its exact horizon still remains uncertain. The colour of the bone, however, and the degree of fossilization, are the same as in the Lysto- saurus murrayi described before2. The preparation of the fossil was also made in the Cenozoic Research Laboratory under my care. Sub-order PELYCOSIMIA y. Huene GENUS CHASMATOSAURUS Haughton Chas matosaurus yuani Young (sp. nov.) Material: The anterior portion of a skull and its lower jaws with a considerable number of teeth still more or less in natural position were prepared from the same block, but found in very disturbed condition, including a set öf vertebre, a great number of ribs, a whole series of slender rib-like bones, the distal end of a humerus, two uln, one radius, two ilia, two tibi, two fibule and many isolated hand and foot bones.
