Globidens was a marine lizard that lived in the warm, shallow seas of the Late Cretaceous. It had strange, round teeth like little balls, perfect for crushing the hard shells of its prey. Unlike many other sea reptiles, Globidens was a shell-crushing specialist!1

Datos curiosos
Globidens had round, globe-shaped teeth that were different from the sharp teeth of most other mosasaurs.1
Scientists found stomach contents inside a Globidens fossil from South Dakota, showing it ate clams called inoceramids.1
Globidens lived about 84 to 66 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.3
The first Globidens fossil was a partial skull and a neck bone found in Alabama, USA, and named in 1912 by Charles W. Gilmore.1
Globidens had a strong, robust skull and a powerful bite to crush the shells of its prey.1
