Type species
Sphenofontis velserae Villa et al. 2021
Sphenofontis S. velserae . It is known from a single nearly complete and articulated sub-adult specimen (SNSB-BSPG 1993 XVIII 4), found in the late Kimmeridgian aged Torleite Formation in Brunn quarry in Bavaria, Southern Germany. It is thought to be a close relative of the living tuatara (Sphenodon puncatus ), tentatively referred to Sphenodontinae.[1]
