Ceresiosaurus
Ceresiosaurus was a long, swimming reptile that lived in warm, shallow seas during the Middle Triassic, about 242 million years ago. It was not a dinosaur, but a relative of plesiosaurs, with flippers like paddles and a very short skull. It grew up to 3 metres (9.8 feet) long, making it one of the biggest animals in its lagoon home.13

Dintlha tse di monate
Ceresiosaurus had the shortest skull of any known nothosaur, making it look more like a plesiosaur.1
Its flippers were very long, with many extra finger bones, just like later plesiosaurs.1
Scientists think Ceresiosaurus swam like a penguin, using its powerful tail and hips to push through the water instead of wiggling its body.1
There are two species: Ceresiosaurus calcagnii and Ceresiosaurus lanzi, which lived at slightly different times.1
The older species, C. calcagnii, had heavy, dense bones in its ribs, which helped it stay underwater like a diver's weight belt.2
The younger species, C. lanzi, had lighter bones and was probably a faster swimmer in open water.2
Ceresiosaurus lived in a warm, subtropical lagoon with many other small marine reptiles.1
