Doswellia kaltenbachi Weems, 1980 |
Doswellia is the name given to a genus of crutotarsan from the Late Triassic (Carnian stage). It lived in what is now North America. The type species, Doswellia kaltenbachi, was described by Weems in 1980. Parrish (1993) places it among the most primitive of the Crurotarsans.
