An Amphisbaenian Skull from the European Miocene and the Evolution of Mediterranean Worm Lizards

The evolution of blanid amphisbaenians (Mediterranean worm lizards) is mainly inferred based on molecular studies, despite their fossils are common in Cenozoic European localities. This is because the fossil record exclusively consists in isolated elements of limited taxonomic value. We describe the...
