Brevicaudosaurus
Brevicaudosaurus was a small marine reptile that lived in the sea during the Triassic Period. It had a very short, flat tail and a broad, flat body, so it probably swam slowly and hunted near the seafloor.1

Brevicaudosaurus means 'short-tailed lizard' because its tail was unusually short and flattened compared to other marine reptiles like it.1
A baby Brevicaudosaurus was only about one-third the length of an adult, and its teeth were small and smooth instead of fang-like.12
Adult Brevicaudosaurus had fang-shaped teeth in the front of the upper jaw, which helped them grab big prey.12
Scientists think Brevicaudosaurus lived on the seafloor and ate animals that lived there, because its flat body and short tail made it a slow swimmer.1
