ResumoABSTRACT Eldeceeon rolfei gen. et sp. nov. a primitive anthracosaur from the Brigantian of East Kirkton, Scotland, is described. Uniquely among non-mammalian tetrapods, its ribs are restricted to the anterior half of the presacral column. Eldeceeon lacks the diagnostic features of the two suborders of anthracosaur, the Anthracosauroideae and Seymouriamorpha, and may represent their sister group.
