Unenlagiinae
Their distinct anatomy from Laurasian dromaeosaurids was likely a consequence of the breakup of Pangaea into Gondwana and Laurasia, where the geological and colleagues in 2020 indicates that unenlagiine dromaeosaurids of Gondwana possessed different hunting specializations than the eudromaeosaurs from Laurasia

At present, this scorpion is the oldest known land-dwelling animal from Gondwana, which in Devonian times was separated from Laurasia by a deep ocean. Evidence of early terrestrial animal life, until this discovery, had been found only in northern Pangaea or Laurasia, currently comprising North America

Microleter
Classification
Microleter is one of the most basal parareptiles, and was originally described as the most basal parareptile from Laurasia. However, Microleter appears in Laurasia soon after the earliest known parareptiles, and spurred discussion supporting the origin of parareptiles in Laurasia

Middle Jurassic
Paleogeography
During the Middle Jurassic Epoch, Pangaea began to separate into Laurasia and Gondwana, and the Atlantic Ocean formed. Eastern Laurasia was tectonically active as the Cimmerian plate continued to collide with Laurasia's southern coast, completely closing the Paleo-Tethys
