Extinct genus of dicynodonts
Lanthanostegus genus of non-mammalian synapsids from the Capitanian Tapinocephalus Assemblage ZoneKoonap Formation (Beaufort Group ) of South Africa. The type and the only species is Lanthanostegus mohoii .
The animal was named as Lanthanocephalus mohoii by Modesto et al. in 2002[ 3] Lanthanostegus mohoii in 2003, as the genus Lanthanocephalus [ 2]
The topology follows Duhamel et al. (2024).[ 4]
