  • Petrolacosaurus was a primitive diapsid reptile featured in Walking with Monsters.
  • Petrolacosaurus was a small, 40-centimeter (16 in) long, reptile, and the earliest diapsid known. It lived during the late Carboniferous period, the Joggins strata where it was found are dated to 302 million years old.
  • Petrolacosaurus lived in North America and was preyed on animals like mesothelae and megneura.
  • Petrolacosaurus was one of the earliest reptiles to evolve. It would have fallen prey to large amphibians (Proterogyrinus) or very large bugs (Meganeura). Petrolacosaurus would have evolved from the earliest amphibians (Hynerpeton), but the main differences include scaly skin, hard shelled eggs and clawed feet.
