Anningasaura
Anningasaura was an early plesiosaur, a marine reptile that swam in the Jurassic seas. It had a long neck, a small head, and flippers like paddles. This creature lived about 200 million years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the land.13

Dintlha tse di monate
Anningasaura is known from only one fossil, a skull and some neck bones from a young plesiosaur.1
The name Anningasaura honors Mary Anning, a famous fossil hunter who discovered many Jurassic marine reptiles in England.1
This plesiosaur had special features in its skull, like a thick platform on its upper jaw and extra holes in its skull bones.1
Anningasaura lived during the Early Jurassic, between 201 and 184 million years ago.3
Scientists think Anningasaura was a very early plesiosaur, not as advanced as later ones like Plesiosaurus.1

- Anningasaura was named in 2012 by paleontologists Peggy Vincent and Roger Benson. The only fossil was found in Lyme Regis, England, and was first thought to be a different plesiosaur called 'Plesiosaurus' macrocephalus.12
