Isfjordosaurus is known from only a single upper arm bone, called a humerus, which makes it a mysterious animal.2
Some scientists are not sure if Isfjordosaurus was really an ichthyosaur, because the bone looks unusual.2
It lived during the Early Triassic, a time when ichthyosaurs were just starting to appear in the oceans.1
The name Isfjordosaurus comes from the Isfjord, a large fjord on Spitsbergen, where the fossil was found.1
The only known species is called Isfjordosaurus minor, and 'minor' means smaller, hinting it was a small reptile.1
