Photograph of the holotype of the metoposaurid Buettneria perfecta (=Anaschisma browni) from the Late Triassic of Texas, housed at the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History. The skull is a mottled brown-beige color, flat, and covered in circular pits on top. Small parts of the back part of the skull have been carefully reconstructed to blend in.
