Sinopliosaurus lived from about 184 to 143 million years ago, during the Jurassic period.1

Its teeth were small, curved, and had grooves along the crown.1

The backbone bones were flat at both ends, which is a special feature.1

It was a fast swimmer that lived near the surface of the sea.4

The type specimen includes a tooth and three vertebrae, found in 1939.2
