title: Perittodus
text: Perittodus is an extinct genus of four-limbed stem-tetrapod from the Mississippian (mid-Tournaisian) of Scotland. It contains a single species, Perittodus apsconditus, based on disarticulated skull and postcranial bones from the Ballagan Formation. The lower jaw of the holotype specimen was about 6.8 cm in length and had a pattern of dentition similar to the Devonian taxon Ymeria. Perittodus was described in a 2016 study which was devised to fill in the tetrapod and stem-tetrapod faunas of Romer
