Could someone tell me where I could find a skeletal reconstruction of lewisuchus?

I have seen the reconstruction of this thecodont in pred dinos of the world, but it seems that the feet have somehow been "blotched-out."

Would appreciate any help.

Well, I wouldn’t try a skeletal reconstruction of Lewisuchus. It is now considered to be a Lagosuchid.

Genus: Lewisuchus ROMER, 1972

= Pseudolagosuchus Arcucci, 1987

L. admixtus ROMER, 1972 (Type)

= Pseudolagosuchus major Arcucci, 1987
