The Early Permian Richards Spur locality, located at the Dolese Brothers limestone quarry in Oklahoma, USA, is one of the most unique and important terrestrial tetrapod faunas of the Palaeozoic. As one of the few upland localities known from this period, it offers a view of the Early Permian that is distinct from those available at the more common and well-studied lowland deltaic/fluvial assemblages. The locality is represented by a vast cave system that possesses a highly fossiliferous infill. Well over 30 tetrapod taxa have been described from Richards Spur, many of which are endemic, making it the most taxonomically diverse terrestrial Palaeozoic locality currently known. However, aside from alpha taxonomy, there has been little to no work done looking at other aspects of the locality, such as taphonomy and palaeoecology. This thesis represents the first large scale study of the unique Richards Spur locality. I further add to the immense
