Abstract
The postcranial skeleton of the varanopid synapsid aerosaurus wellesi is reconstructed based on several specimens including partly articulated material of an apparently fully adult specimen. Comparisons are made with other known varanopid taxa, reaffirming its position as a basal varanondontine.
