Description Early depictions of this animal show it as a more spinosaur-like animal; however, a recent study makes Magnusaurus look unlike the sailed fish eaters. Belonging to a strange group of Parasynapsida. But it is still up for debate on whether or not they're true synapsids or just a case of convergent evolution. But the recent description of the Pilosatheriid Parasynapsid Nyembambarhychus in 2023 showed that the group could be stem-Synapsids.
