Scylacosauridae is a family of therocephalian therapsids. Scylacosaurids lived during the Permian period and were among the most basal therocephalians.[1] The family was named by South African paleontologist Robert Broom in 1903.[2] Scylacosaurids have long snouts and unusual saber-like canine teeth.[3]
