Cynognathus distribution map



Distribution map of Cynognathus (after Botha 2007)


Cynognathus was a eucynodont which lived from the Early through Middle Triassic period at 247-237 mya.  The name Cynognathus comes from Cyno- "dog"  and gnathus "jaw".  

This map shows the widespread distribution of the genus across southern Africa, South America, and northwest Antarctica, in the context of the merged continents in the Triassic known as Pangaea.
