Theledectinae

In this article we will explore the impact of Theledectinae in different contexts and situations. Theledectinae is a topic that has become increasingly relevant in recent years, and its influence ranges from the personal to the professional level. Throughout this analysis, we will examine the many facets of Theledectinae and how these have shaped our understanding and experience in various aspects of life. From its impact on society to its implications in technology, through its relevance in art and culture, Theledectinae has become a transversal topic that deserves to be carefully examined. Through this article, we aim to provide a complete and objective view of Theledectinae and its importance in the contemporary world.

Genera

Theledectinae is an extinct subfamily of parareptiles within the family Procolophonidae. Theledectines existed in South Africa, China and Australia during the Early-Middle Triassic period (Induan to Anisian stages). Theledectinae was named by Juan Carlos Cisneros in 2008 to include the genus Theledectes, and the species "Eumetabolodon" dongshengensis. "E." dongshengensis represents a new genus from China. Cladistically, it is defined as "All taxa more closely related to Theledectes perforatus (Gow, 1977a) than to Procolophon trigoniceps Owen, 1876".[1] In 2020, Hamley add the new genus Eomurruna from Australia to this subfamily.[2]
