Abstract

? Parallelodon dickinsi Waterhouse, 1980 Original source Waterhouse (1980): 103; figured by Dickins (1963: pl. 3 figs 1–5) as P. subtilistriatus. Type stratum and age “Lower Liveringa Formation”; given as Kungurian (Cisuralian, Permian) by Waterhouse, but Mii et al. (2013) classify the Liveringa Group in the Guadalupian–Lopingian, Permian. Type locality “ Mt Marmion, Western Australia ”; Fitzroy Basin, western Kimberley, Australia. Type material Holotype is a LV (CPC [“CDC”] 45359, according to Waterhouse 1980; UWA 45359, according to Dickins 1956), figured by Dickins (1963: pl. 3 figs 2–3) as P. subtilistriatus Wanner, 1922. Further material is a RV (UWA 45358) and a LV (UWA 45360). Holotype stored at the Commonwealth Palaeontological Collection of Geoscience Australia (CPC), formerly at the Geology Department of the University of Western Australia (UWA). However, the specimen is not listed in the CPC collection catalogue of Strusz (1996). Remarks Waterhouse introduced the species based on six specimens that had been misidentified as P. subtilistriatus Wanner, 1922 by Dickins (1963).
