I have tried to find someone who could tell me abit more about this creature and its neighbors. I was going to do some drawings of this oddball but cant find any real info on it other than " its simular to Dimetrodon " but what species of Dimetrodon ? Who was he eating? What was the environment like? alot of these things have been never really given a clear light to the outside of research realm other than some older papers and alot of thought.Like the sphenacodons most of the conditions of the ctenospondylus are\were unknown artistic wise, definately on the animal itself and its different permo-carbon environment.
