When and how did the terrestrial mid-Permian mass extinction occur? Evidence from the tetrapod record of the Karoo Basin, South Africa
A mid-Permian (Guadalupian epoch) extinction event at approximately 260 Ma has been
mooted for two decades. This is based primarily on invertebrate biostratigraphy of …
