Leiodon was a giant marine lizard that swam in the warm seas of the Late Cretaceous. It had smooth, curved teeth perfect for grabbing slippery fish and other sea creatures.1

Leiodon was first named by the famous scientist Richard Owen in 1841, based on just two tooth fragments and a bit of jawbone.1

The name Leiodon means 'smooth tooth' because the fossil teeth had a smooth and polished surface.1

Leiodon lived between about 100 and 66 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.3

Leiodon fossils have been found all over the world, including in Antarctica, Europe, Africa, and South America.3

Some scientists think Leiodon might not be a valid genus because its main fossil teeth are now lost, making it a 'nomen dubium' or doubtful name.1

Leiodon was one of the original genera used to define the family Mosasauridae in 1853.1

Atosɛm: Leiodon was a dinosaur.

Nokorɛ: Leiodon was not a dinosaur. It was a mosasaur, a type of giant marine lizard that lived in the ocean.1

Nhunumu: Richard Owen named Leiodon in 1841 from two tooth fragments and a small jaw piece found in Essex, England.1
Wɔda so gye ho akyinnye: Scientists are not sure if Leiodon is a valid genus because the original tooth fossils are missing, so it might be a 'nomen dubium' (doubtful name).1
