Westphaliasaurus was a long-necked marine reptile that swam in the warm, shallow seas of what is now Germany. It was not a dinosaur, but a plesiosaur, a type of sea creature that used four flippers to paddle through the water. Scientists think it was about 4.5 metres long, as long as a small car!1

1

Westphaliasaurus is known from a nearly complete skeleton, but the skull and about 38% of the upper neck vertebrae are missing.1

2

It lived during the Early Jurassic Period, about 192 to 184 million years ago.3

3

The fossil was discovered in 2007 by an amateur paleontologist named Sönke Simonsen.1

4

Its scientific name, Westphaliasaurus simonsensii, honors the discoverer Sönke Simonsen.1

5

Westphaliasaurus is one of only three plesiosaurs known from the Pliensbachian stage of the Early Jurassic.2

Westphaliasaurus was found by amateur paleontologist Sönke Simonsen in 2007 at a clay pit in Sommersell, Germany. It was named and described by scientists Leonie Schwermann and Martin Sander in 2011.1

Scientists are not sure exactly how Westphaliasaurus is related to other plesiosaurs, because its skull is missing.1
