It is known from a single skull found from the Early Triassic Katberg Formation in South Africa. It is the oldest known member of the subfamily Leptopleuroninae, and was likely the result of a procolophonid migration into the Karoo Basin from Laurasia after the Permo-Triassic extinction event. Because Phonodus had large maxillary teeth underneath a large antorbital buttress (a bony prominence in front of the eye), and a lack of ventral temporal emargination along the side of the skull, it probably had a durophagous diet.[1] References1. ^{{cite journal |last1=Modesto |first1=S.P. |last2=Scott |first2=D.M. |last3=Botha-Brink |first3=J. |last4=Reisz |first4=R.R. |year=2010 |title=A new and unusual procolophonid parareptile from the Lower Triassic Katberg Formation of South Africa |journal=Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology |volume=30 |issue=3 |pages=715–723 |doi=10.1080/02724631003758003}} {{Parareptilia|Procolophonoidea}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q7187273}}{{triassic-reptile-stub}} 4 : Leptopleuronines|Early Triassic reptiles of Africa|Triassic parareptiles|Fossil taxa described in 2010 |
