Extract

When searching for traces of the dermal structure preserved in the specimen of Hyperodapedon in the British Museum (Natural History) in London, my attention was drawn to certain spots where the matrix showed projections and pits of a polygonal shape, which I detected when I took the photographs of this Triassic reptile. Primarily occupying myself with the matrix of the principal slab, in which the skeleton is enclosed, I quite thought I had only to deal with dermal structures similar to those discovered in Rhynchosaurus.
