Lindwurmia
Lindwurmia was a small, long-necked marine reptile that swam in the seas of Early Jurassic Germany. It was a plesiosaur, not a dinosaur, and it used its four flippers to paddle through the water. This ancient hunter ate fish and other sea creatures.12

Its name comes from the Lindwurm, a dragon in German stories, because the fossil was found in Germany.1
The only known fossil was discovered in 1899 by Johannes Maak, but it was not recognized as a new species until over a century later.1
Lindwurmia had 24 neck vertebrae and five pairs of teeth in its upper jaw.1
The fossil was partly damaged by a dragline excavator when it was first found, but it was restored by 1900.1
Scientists think Lindwurmia was a rhomaleosaurid, a group of plesiosaurs with short necks and large heads.1

- The only fossil of Lindwurmia was found in 1899 in a clay quarry in Halberstadt, Germany, by Johannes Maak. It was first described by Theodore Brandes in 1912 and 1914, but it was not named Lindwurmia thiuda until 2019 by Peggy Vincent and Glenn Storrs.12

- Scientists are still debating exactly where Lindwurmia fits on the plesiosaur family tree. Some studies place it close to Anningasaura within Rhomaleosauridae.1
