Paracyclotosaurus: A Giant Amphibian from the Triassic Period This illustration by Neave Parker brings to life the enigmatic Paracyclotosaurus, a large amphibian that roamed the Earth during the Triassic period around 235 million years ago. Measuring over 2 metres in length, this carnivorous amphibian was part of the Labyrinthodontia order, specifically the Temnospondyli family, and is classified under the Capitosauroidea and Capitosauridae suborders. The Paracyclotosaurus is depicted in its aquatic habitat, basking in the daytime sun. Its elongated snout and powerful limbs are well-suited for both swimming and moving on land. The vibrant colour palette of this illustration adds to the intrigue of this prehistoric creature, transporting us back to the 20th century when such discoveries were still new and fascinating. The Paracyclotosaurus was a formidable predator, with sharp teeth and a strong jawline. Its large size and carnivorous diet made it a top-tier predator in its ecosystem. Despite its intimidating appearance, this amphibian was an important part of the diverse wildlife that populated the Earth during the Triassic period. Neave Parker's illustration is a testament to the beauty and mystery of the natural world, reminding us of the rich history of life that has come before us. This image is a must-have for any nature enthusiast or collector of prehistoric animals, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the wonders that still exist in the natural world.
