Thaumastosaurus bottii DE STEFANO, 1903

T. bottii is reliably known from a single locality, La Bouffie, of late Eocene (MP 17) age. It was redescribed by Roček and Lamaud (1995) and it is known only by skull bones. It should be noted that in Rage’s (2006) treatment, all bones belonging to Thaumastosaurus were assigned to T. bottii , because only that species was known at that time; this resulted in a likely erroneous stratigraphic range being reported for this species, extending from MP 16 to MP 19 and perhaps MP 20 ( Rage 2006: 166, tabl. 3).
