Chez les pélycosauriens, comme chez tous les véritables reptiles[,] l'épiptérygoïde est un os en forme de tige verticale posé sur le ptérygoïde. Chez les thérapsidés, il prend plus d'importance, formant une lame allongée dans le plan sagittal médian, et il est soudé au basisphénoïde; l'épiptérygoïde commence alors à faire partie de la paroi de la cavité cérébrale. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9pipt%C3%A9rygo%C3%AFde
