Descripción
The entire Omingonde Formation in Namibia was previously assigned a Triassic age based on the fossil tetrapod fauna discoveredsouthwest of the Waterberg Plateau. However, recently repatriated and newly collected material suggests that the lowermost part of theOmingonde Formation includes late Permian strata, equivalent in age to the upper Endothiodon Assemblage Zone of the South AfricanKaroo Basin. In this study, we document the first record of late Permian tetrapod fossils from Namibia, and provide brief descriptions ofa gorgonopsian skull collected at Mount Etjo in 1996 and the skull of a small dicynodont collected at the same site in 2019, referable tocf. Tropidostoma. This material confirms that there is need for better understanding of the stratigraphy of the Etjo Mountain area, inparticular the position and nature of the unconformity between strata of the Permian Endothiodon and the Triassic Cynognathus assemblage zones.
