Contectopalatus was a marine reptile that lived in the ocean during the Triassic Period. It had a very tall crest on its head made of bone, which helped it bite hard. It was one of the biggest ichthyosaurs of its time.2

1

Contectopalatus had a very high crest on its skull made from the nasal, frontal and parietal bones. This crest grew taller as the animal got older.2

2

Its jaw muscles were arranged in a unique way. They stretched all the way up to the nostril opening on top of the skull.2

3

This special muscle arrangement gave Contectopalatus a very strong bite. It was one of the top predators in the Triassic seas.2

4

Contectopalatus was about 5 metres long. That makes it the largest known mixosaurid ichthyosaur.2

5

Mixosaurids like Contectopalatus were once thought to be small and simple. But they were actually highly specialized and diverse.2

The first fossils were described by Quenstedt in 1851 to 52 as Ichthyosaurus atavus. In 1998, Maisch and Matzke renamed it Contectopalatus after studying its skull.1
ገና ዘከራኽር
Scientists are still debating exactly how the tall crest and jaw muscles worked together to give Contectopalatus such a powerful bite.2
