ደስ ዝብሉ ሓቅታት

1

The name Cryptoclidus means 'hidden collarbone' because its collarbones are tiny and hidden in the shoulder area.1

2

Fossils of Cryptoclidus have been found in the Oxford Clay of Cambridgeshire, England, and in the Kimmeridge Clay of France.1

3

The type species was first called Plesiosaurus eurymerus, which means 'wide thigh bone', because scientists mistook a front flipper bone for a back leg bone.1

4

Cryptoclidus had a small, fragile skull and teeth that could not handle tough prey, so it ate only soft animals.1

5

Scientists think Cryptoclidus used its long, intermeshing teeth to strain small animals from the water or sift through mud.1

6

The size and shape of its nostrils suggest Cryptoclidus could smell chemicals in seawater, helping it find food.1

7

Complete skeletons of Cryptoclidus have been found, including some that are nearly entirely preserved, showing both adults and juveniles.1
