labyrinthodonta
Labyrinthodonta is a class of prehistoric amphibians that lived from the late Silurian to the late Permian period. The name Labyrinthodonta, originating from Greek, refers to the labyrinthine structure of the infolded enamel within the teeth, a characteristic feature of these animals. They were a diverse group with both semi-aquatic and terrestrial species, and varying sizes ranging from small to gigantic proportions. They were marked by their heavily armored skulls, stocky bodies, and the labyrinthine pattern of infolding in the dentin and enamel of their teeth.
