Biography

Albanerpeton is an extinct genus of salamander-like lissamphibian found in North America and Europe, first appearing in Cretaceous-aged strata. There are eight described members of the genus, and one undiagnosed species from the Paskapoo Formation, with the most recent, A. ektopistikon being described by Carrano et al.in 2022.[1] Members of the genus had a robust head and neck which likely allowed them to actively burrow, characteristic of fossorial species, and they lived in a wide range of environments. This genus of amphibian was the last of its order, surviving until the late Pliocene in southern Europe, and into the Early Pleistocene (Gelasian) of northern Italy. It likely became extinct when the region developed its present Mediterranean-type climate, having preferred one that was cold and humid.[2] The monophyly of Albanerpeton has recently been questioned[3][4]
