Definition (free text, please give PubMed ID)
Paired element that is typically fused to the hyomandibula. This element is often referred to as the antoperculum/antopercular but is distinct in being fused to the hyomandibula.
An example of a taxon where the dermohyal is present is Cheirolepis trailli, as figured by Giles et al. (2015) figure 9 of NMS.1956.19.
