1

Cyamodus had a two-part shell: a big plate covered its body from neck to hips, and a smaller plate covered its hips and tail base.1

2

Its shell was made of many hexagonal or circular bony plates that made it heavy, helping it sink and stay underwater to find food.1

3

Fossils of two baby Cyamodus were found inside the stomach of a Lariosaurus, a large marine reptile that ate them.1

4

Cyamodus lived about 245 to 235 million years ago, during the Middle and Late Triassic.1

5

Its skull was heart-shaped and broad, and its limbs were short so it probably only came on land to rest.1

6

The first Cyamodus fossils were found in Germany and were originally thought to be from fish.1
