Gilles Cuny, A Late Triassic Cynodont from Holwell Quarries (Somerset, England). Oryctos 5, 69-73.
The presence of the dromatheriid cynodont Pseudotriconodon wildi is reported from the Rhaetian of Great Britain in the fissure deposits at Holwell Quarries. The British Rhaetic cynodont fauna, although consisting only of a dromatheriid tooth, one tooth of Tricupes, and one tritylodontid fragmentary jaw, is similar to that found in the Germanic Realm. It appears to be the remnant of a fauna that covered all of Western Europe before the fragmentation of its habitat due to the Rhaetian transgression.
