Tetracynodon

''Tetracynodon'' is an extinct genus of therocephalian. Fossils of ''Tetracynodon'' have been found in the Karoo Basin of South Africa. Two species are known: the type species ''T. tenuis'' from the Late Permian and the species ''T. darti'' from the Early Triassic. Both species were small-bodied and probably fed on insects and small vertebrates. Although ''Tetracynodon'' is more closely related to mammals than it is to reptiles, its braincase is very primitive and shares more in common with modern amphibians and reptiles than it does with mammals.〔
==Permo-Triassic survivorship==
''Tetracynodon'' was one of the few therapsid genera known to have survived the Permo-Triassic extinction event. Aside from ''Tetracynodon'', the only therocephalian genera known from both sides of the Permo-Triassic boundary are ''Moschorhinus'' and ''Promoschorhynchus''. The Triassic species ''Tetracynodon darti'' would have been part of the extinction's survivor fauna, a low-diversity community of therapsids and other land vertebrates. The Triassic species ''Tetracynodon darti'' is relatively small compared to Permian baurioids. This may be a possible example of the Lilliput effect in which small species are more common immediately after a mass extinction.
