Macroleter

Macroleter is an extinct genus of nycteroleterid parareptile which existed in Oklahoma and Russia during the upper Permian period.

It was a quite generalized primitive reptile, in many ways resembling their amphibian ancestors.

According to classification by Michel Laurin and Robert R. Reisz, the genus is a parareptile, belonging to the same branch as Millerettidae, Procolophonidae and other generalized anapsid reptiles.

[2] The type species is Macroleter poezicus from Upper Permian of Russia.

The find consists of a nearly complete skeleton from the Chickasha Formation of Oklahoma.
