Synapsida. This illustration shows an extinct sail‑backed non‑mammalian synapsid in lateral view with elongated dorsal neural spines forming a fin-like sail. In evolutionary hierarchy, it represents a basal amniote within Vertebrata and the mammal‑line clade. The organism (tetrapod) is studied in paleontology and comparative anatomy. The axial skeleton’s neural spines and overlying integument are emphasized, with a sprawling limb posture and prominent conical teeth. The sail’s functional interpretations in physiology and behavior include thermoregulation or visual display. Specific species is not indicated.
