A curved line, the temporal line, or supramastoid crest, runs backward and upward across its posterior part; it serves for the attachment of the temporal fascia, and limits the origin of the Temporalis muscle. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The temporal fossa is bounded above and behind by the temporal lines, which extend from the zygomatic process of the frontal bone upward and backward across the frontal and parietal bones, and then curve downward and forward to become continuous with the supramastoid crest and the posterior root of the zygomatic arch. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The zygomatic process of the temporal arises by two roots, an anterior, directed inward in front of the mandibular fossa, where it expands to form the articular tubercle, and a posterior, which runs backward above the external acoustic meatus and is continuous with the supramastoid crest. ❋ Unknown (1918)
More massive teeth and boney ridges (sagittal and supramastoid crests). ❋ Ashcraft (2010)
More massive teeth and boney ridges (sagittal and supramastoid crests), formerly Australopithecus. ❋ Ashcraft (2010)
A zygomatic arch, but no distinct supratemporal or supramastoid arches Theriodonta. ❋ Unknown (1771)
The suf ratemporo - supramastoid suture is omitted in the Rbynchocephalia in imitation of Bphenodon. ❋ Unknown (1771)
The supramastoid-parietal suture is omitted in the Pseudosuchia to resemble Aitosaurus. ❋ Unknown (1771)
The superior arch consists of the supramastoid bone posteriorly, and apparently the postfrontal anteriorly. ❋ Unknown (1771)
There is a superior foramen, however, which is bounded below by the postfrontal bone in front, and the supramastoid be - hind; which are themselves in contact below with the postorbital and the supratem - poral. ❋ Unknown (1771)
The intercalare is reduced to a small element, of which a small part appears on the superior face of the skull immediately behind the exterior part of the supramastoid ❋ Unknown (1771)
The component elements of the cranial roof are equal in number and similar in position to those of the Stegocephalian skull, except that the supramastoid extends between the parietal and intercalare to the posterior border of the cranial table (Fig. 2, 8m.); and the supraoccipital does not extend onto the superior face of the skull, except as a narrow border. ❋ Unknown (1771)
The numerous names given to bones in this region of the skull all apply to the squamosal or supratemporal, so I propose to name this one the supramastoid. ❋ Unknown (1771)
In Diclonius the supramastoid is fused with the parietal, t but in Iguanodon, according to DoUo, it is distinct. ❋ Unknown (1771)
(quadratojugal), or supramastoid, is visible, but whether they are wanting or fused with adjacent elements, examination of specimens will best show. ❋ Unknown (1771)
