1

Angolasaurus was one of the few Turonian mosasaurs found on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, showing it could cross the sea.1

2

Its skull had 11 teeth in the upper jaw, 4 in the front, and 12 in the lower jaw.1

3

Scientists think Angolasaurus had a tail fluke, like a shark, for powerful swimming.1

4

Its body was covered in keeled scales that helped it move smoothly through water.1

5

Because the seas it lived in were cooling, Angolasaurus may have had dark patterns on its back to soak up heat from the sun.1

6

Angolasaurus shared its home in Angola with the giant mosasaur Tylosaurus and a turtle called Angolachelys.1

Angolasaurus was first named in 1964 by Miguel Telles Antunes, based on a partial skull and skeleton found in Angola. It was later thought to be a species of Platecarpus, but new studies in 2005 showed it was a separate genus.1
Ñu ngi koy werante ba tey
Scientists are still debating exactly where Angolasaurus fits in the mosasaur family tree, with some studies placing it as a basal plioplatecarpine.1
