Photographs of the fused and anteriorly incomplete frontoparietals (MTM VER 2016.2546), the largest and one of the most nearly complete squamosals (MTM VER 2016.695, left squamosal), and the most nearly complete maxilla (MTM VER 2016.690, right maxilla) are overlain onto skull image of the Eocene anuran Thaumastosaurus gezei (modified from Laloy et al. 2013: fig. 3A). To improve symmetry, for the frontoparietals the intact portion from its left side was mirrored onto the right side and the left squamosal and right maxilla were mirrored onto the opposite sides of the skull. Dotted lines denote skull outline,inferred natural margins along broken surfaces for bones, and inferred contacts among bones. Although the posterior end of the maxilla is depicted as free, a shallow facet preserved on the dorsolingual surface of MTM VER 2016.690 indicates the maxilla posteriorly contacted the quadratojugal to form a closed ‘cheek’. All fossil bones are depicted at their actual sizes relative to one another (i.e., they have not been arbitrarily re-sized in an attempt to improve proportions and contacts).Thaumastosaurus De Stefano, 1903 was chosen as the basis for our reconstruction, not because it is closely related (see our phylogenetic analysis and Fig. 8), but because its shape and proportions are a good fit for the available fossil bones of Hungarobatrachus.

Frontoparietals solidly fused along midline and no development of dorsal crests or ridges, at least posteriorly; posterolateral portion expanded laterally to form a large squamosal process that potentially contacts laterally with squamosal; ventral surface bears two unpaired frontoparietal incrassations, consisting of an evidently elongate anterior incrassation with a bi-lobed posterior margin and a subcircular posterior incrassation; and occipital canal completely enclosed within bone, with its foramen arteria temporalis opening ventrally between squamosal process and pars contacta. Squamosal having enlarged, ventroanteriorly directed processus zygomaticus and smaller, posteriorly directed processus posterodorsalis, both expanded to form broad lamella alaris that is tilted posteriorly, somewhat rhomboid in outline, with anterodorsal margin shallowly concave and fully enclosing posterior portion of orbit and with posteroventral margin more deeply concave; base of processus zygomaticus expanded anteroposteriorly and evidently abutted against complementary processus zygomatico-maxillaris on maxilla; anteroventral end of processus zygomaticus moderately elongate and tapered, with leading edge bearing tiny, knob-like projections. Maxilla moderately elongate, deep, and robust; preorbital region deepest, orbital region indented by moderately elongate and concave margo orbitalis, and postorbital region moderately deep, elongate, and tapered posteriorly; lamina horizontalis deep and lingually narrow, ending posteriorly in an evidently well developed processus pterygoideus; processus posterior lingually bears sutural surface for quadratojugal articulation, indicating maxillary arcade was closed posteriorly forming a bony ‘cheek’; and maxilla dentate, bearing numerous small and closely spaced teeth. Angulosplenial having processus coronoideus bearing single low, broadly convex dorsal tubercle. Ilium heavily built; dorsal crest high (about 2.5 times higher than ilial shaft) and sail-like in lateral outline, and mediolaterally thick; lateral surface of dorsal crest and adjacent dorsolateral surface of shaft prominently ornamented with anteroposteriorly elongate grooves and posteriorly anastomosing ridges, with ornamented surface demarcated ventrally by a convex ridge extending anteroposteriorly along lateral surface of ilial shaft; dorsal protuberance developed as a medially thickened, low, and laterally projecting flange, with undivided and roughened surface; interiliac tubercle greatly enlarged to cover entire medial portion of ilial body including preacetabular region and with its medial surface flattened and variably roughened for strong sutural contact with opposite ilium.</paragraph>

To improve symmetry, for the frontoparietals the intact portion from its left side was mirrored onto the right side and the left squamosal and right maxilla were mirrored onto the opposite sides of the skull. Dotted lines denote skull outline,inferred natural margins along broken surfaces for bones, and inferred contacts among bones. Although the posterior end of the maxilla is depicted as free, a shallow facet preserved on the dorsolingual surface of MTM VER 2016.690 indicates the maxilla posteriorly contacted the quadratojugal to form a closed ‘cheek’. All fossil bones are depicted at their actual sizes relative to one another (i.e., they have not been arbitrarily re-sized in an attempt to improve proportions and contacts).Thaumastosaurus De Stefano, 1903 was chosen as the basis for our reconstruction, not because it is closely related (see our phylogenetic analysis and Fig. 8), but because its shape and proportions are a good fit for the available fossil bones of Hungarobatrachus.

). The preacetabular angle (i.e., angle between anterior margin of ventral acetabular expansion and ventral surface of ilial shaft, measured in lateral aspect) is slightly more than 90°. The ilial shaft is cylindrical in cross section and, extending along its dorsolateral surface, bears a prominent dorsal crest. The crest is both tall (about 2.5 times taller than ilial shaft and with dorsal edge of crest lying well above level of dorsal surface of acetabular dorsal expansion) and mediolaterally thickened. The posterior end of the dorsal crest is approximately in line with the anterior portion of the acetabular rim and lies well behind the anterior limit of the anteriorly expanded interiliac tubercle. The dorsal crest projects dorsally and slightly medially; its medial face is flattened and smooth, whereas its lateral face is shallowly convex. Prominent ridge-and-groove ornament is developed across the lateral surfaces of the dorsal crest and the dorsal three-quarters of the underlying ilial shaft. The lowermost boundary of that ornamented area is sharply defined by a narrow, but prominent ridge extending along the ventrolateral surface of the ilial shaft; that ridge is in approximately the same position as the calamita ridge reported in some bufonids (seeGómez & Turazzini 2016: 8), but is not clearly homologous with the latter structure. Along the shaft and onto the lower two-thirds of the dorsal crest, the lateral ornament on MTM VER 2015.145.1 consists of anteroposteriorly elongate grooves and posteriorly anastomosing ridges, whereas across the upper one-third of the crest the ridges are shorter and oriented more vertically. Along its posterior edge, the dorsal crest bears a dorsal protuberance in the form of a low and moderately thickened flange that projects laterodorsally and has a slightly roughened surface.

) can be recognized using two sets of landmarks along the occipital surface: 1) a dorsally placed processus posterior superior and a ventrally placed processus posterior inferior that both project a short distance posteriorly from the posterior midline; and 2) an equal distance from, and to either side of, the posterior midline, the occipital face of the specimen is perforated by an intact (left) and incomplete (right) opening for the foramen arteriae occipitalis. The dorsal and ventral surfaces of MTM VER 2016.2546 lack a suture or a line of fusion demarcating the sagittal midline. Instead, the bone is solid and continuous throughout that region. This indicates that the left and right frontoparietals were solidly fused, at least along the posterior portions of their medial edges. Based on comparisons with other anurans having solidly fused frontoparietals, we predict that the left and right frontoparietals were solidly fused together along their entire lengths in

), the posterior portion of the lateral surface of the squamosal process is intact and roughened. We provisionally interpret this anteroposteriorly roughened surface as a sutural surface for contact laterally with the squamosal. We are forced to qualify that statement, because none of the six available squamosals (see next section) preserves evidence of a complementary contact surface along their dorsal margin. AsLynch (1971: 46-47) noted, many anuran genera have frontoparietals with a posterolaterally expanded portion that approaches, but fails to directly contact with the dorsal rim of the squamosals—that potentially could be the pattern in

A-C). The pits are of varying diameters and outlines, ranging from small to moderate and oval, sub-circular, or polygonal, but are consistently shallowly concave and their floors are perforated by one or several tiny holes. The pits are bordered by low, narrow ridges that coalesce to form a loosely reticulate arrangement. Although variation is evident in the size and outlines of the pits and ridge, there is no obvious change in ornament across the preserved posterior portion of the frontoparietals. A similar pit-and-ridge ornament occurs on the external surfaces of the squamosals and maxillae. Aside from its dorsal ornamentation and the previously mentioned, possible bite mark, the dorsal surface of MTM VER 2016.2546 lacks other prominent surface features such as crests or ridges. There is no dorsal exposure of the canal for the arteria occipitalis (see below), which indicates that at least along its posterior portion that canal is fully enclosed within the frontoparietal.

D-F). Midway across the specimen, the posterior portion of the pars contacta is preserved as a moderately deep and ventrally projecting flange that traces a sinuous anteroposterior path. Along its preserved anterior portion, the pars contacta is anteroposteriorly straight in ventral view. In this region, the pars contacta laterally bears a weak bony pillar that extends dorsally and then curves laterally onto the underside of the facies dorsalis to demarcate the shallowly concave, posteromedial wall of the orbit. Lateral to the preserved anterior portion of the pars contacta, enough of the laterally expanded portion of the facies dorsalis remains in front of the bony pillar and squamosal process to show that the tectum supraorbitale (= alae supraorbitale) overhung the orbital region, although how far it projected laterally is unknown because the margo orbitalis is not intact. Midway along its length, the pars contacta thickens and flares laterally and, in this region, its ventromedial and ventral surfaces are roughened for sutural contact with the underlying (and not preserved) endocranium. Posteriorly the pars contacta grades into the ventral surface of the pars facialis, but here the bone is broken away where the processus paraoccipitalis would have projected posteriorly. Best seen in oblique ventral and left lateral view (

), a moderately large foramen opens midway along the lateral base of the pars contacta. We interpret this opening as the foramen arteria temporalis, for exit of one of the branches of the arteria occipitalis. Extending from that foramen is a shallow groove for the canalis arteria temporalis, which traces the anterolateral path of the arteria temporalis between the ventral surface of the squamosal process and the underlying temporal musculature (

The remaining margins of the lamella alaris are formed exclusively by the processus zygomaticus.

It is missing its anteriormost end, the anterodorsal portion of its processus frontalis, and much of its processus pterygoideus. Additionally, the ventral edge of the maxilla is damaged along much of the tooth row and no teeth are preserved. Finally, several vertical cracks extending through the maxilla have caused minor labiolin-

) is elongate and moderately deep. Although broken anteriorly, it is clear that the preorbital region was the deepest portion of the maxilla. Judging by its preserved portion, the processus frontalis was a moderately deep flange, as is typical for many anurans. By comparison, the postorbital region is slightly lower, much more elongate, and tapers posteriorly. This region consists anteriorly of a processus zygomatico-maxillaris that is deepest anteriorly. Behind its weakly triangular apex, the dorsal edge of the processus zygomatico-maxillaris is shallowly concave and descends at a shallow angle posteriorly to a point about three-fifths of the distance along the postorbital region; at that point, the dorsal edge of the bone descends at a steeper angle and terminates posteriorly in a low and blunt processus posterior. Separating the pre- and postorbital regions, the orbital region is moderately elongate and its margo orbitalis is shallowly concave.

Best developed along the suborbital region, the lamina horizontalis (= pars palatinus) is a moderately deep (i.e., accounts for about onethird of the suborbital depth) and lingually narrow ledge, with a shallowly convex labial face and a broad groove along its dorsal surface. Anteriorly, the lamina horizontalis shallows and its anteriormost end is broken away. More posteriorly, the lamina horizontalis deepens and expands lingually as it grades into the broken base of the processus pterygoideus.

A second, unidentified foramen opens more posteriorly, behind the base of the processus pterygoideus. As noted in the squamosal description above, the dorsal and dorsoventral surfaces of the processus zygomatico-maxillaris lack obvious sutural surfaces for contacting the squamosal; instead, those two bones probably simply abutted against one another. Along its dorsolingual surface, the processus posterior bears a shallow, triangular facet for contact with the quadratojugal.

The anterior and posterior portions of the processus coronoideus are developed as dorsally convex mounds.
