Article: A weigeltisaurid reptile from the Lower Triassic of British Columbia

The skull of a new weigeltisaurid reptile, Wapitisaurus problematicus gen. et sp. nov., from the Lower Triassic Vega-Phoroso Member of the Sulphur Mountain Formation is described. It shares with Coelurosauravus, the only other known weigeltisaurid, the presence of an incomplete lower temporal arcade, a jugal with reduced postorbital process, and a squamosal crest ornamented with tooth-like projections. It differs from Coelurosauravus in its large size and in the structure and implantation of the teeth.
