1

Thalassomedon's neck had 62 vertebrae and was about 5.9 metres (19 feet) long, more than half of its total body length.1

2

Its flippers were about 1.5 to 2 metres (4.9 to 6.6 feet) long, helping it steer through the water.1

3

Stones have been found in the stomach area of Thalassomedon, which scientists think may have helped grind food or acted as ballast for diving.1

4

Its skull was only 47 centimetres (19 inches) long, but its teeth were 5 centimetres (2 inches) long.1

5

Thalassomedon lived during the Cenomanian stage of the Late Cretaceous, about 95 million years ago.1

6

Its closest relative is Elasmosaurus, another long-necked plesiosaur.1

7

Six specimens of Thalassomedon are on display in museums across the United States.1
