 The researchers analyzed a fossilized skull found in the Volga region of Russia. They determined that the skull belonged to a species of Paritasuchus, a type of Temnispondylemphibian. The skull's location in the Astrakhan region allowed them to identify the species as Paritasuchus bogdonus, which had been previously described from the same area.
