Cool! Here's the (open access) paper: https://academic.oup.com/zoolinnean/advance-article/doi/10.1093/zoolinnean/zlae012/7630141?login=false

This little amphibamiform temnospondyl comes from the super-diverse Early Permian Clear Fork Formation of Texas, also home to species of Dimetrodon, Edaphosaurus, Eryops, Diplocaulus, Cacops, and many less famous critters.
