    Ok. It's Megawhaitsia patrichae, a giant therapsid (estimated to be about as big as a tiger), possibly a therocephalian and known from a jaw found in Russia; it seems that the thing was venomous and filled the niche of gorgonopsids as top predator, in a place where gorgonopsids seemingly didn´t exist.

    An easy one.

    A skull of this creature was thought for many years to be the skull of an actual dragon.
