Three perfectly preserved 245 million-year-old skulls of a salamander-like creature have been found in Tasmania.
The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (TMAG) deputy director of collections and research, Andrew Rozefelds, said the fossils were found in the south of the state.
The skulls are believed to belong to an extinct group of amphibians called labyrinthodonts, he said.
"The skulls are significant because they tell the history of life in Tasmania as well as adding to the evolutionary history of fossil amphibians from around the world," he said.
Now are the beds contiguous backwards through the PT Event?
