Plesiotylosaurus was a giant marine lizard that swam in the warm seas of the Late Cretaceous. It was not a dinosaur, but a fierce predator with a long, powerful body and a skull full of sharp teeth.1

1

Plesiotylosaurus had a bony rostrum (a kind of snout tip) that stuck out in front of its teeth, which is unusual among mosasaurs.1

2

Its lower jaw alone was nearly 1 meter (3.2 feet) long, about the height of a 3-year-old child.1

3

Plesiotylosaurus had teeth on the roof of its mouth (pterygoid teeth) that were almost as big as its regular teeth.1

4

Even though its name means 'near Tylosaurus', Plesiotylosaurus is not closely related to Tylosaurus. They just evolved similar skull features separately.1

5

The holotype skull of Plesiotylosaurus was found in the Panoche Hills of California, and it is a bit squashed but still mostly complete.1

6

Plesiotylosaurus lived about 70 to 66 million years ago, right at the end of the Age of Dinosaurs.1

?How big was Plesiotylosaurus?

About 6 metres (20 feet) long, based on its 98 cm (3.22 feet) lower jaw. Some estimates suggest around 6.5 metres.12

?What did Plesiotylosaurus eat?

It was a carnivore and probably ate tough prey like marine turtles, which are found in the same rocks. Its robust skull and strong jaws suggest it could handle hard-shelled animals.12

?Was Plesiotylosaurus a dinosaur?

No, it was a marine lizard belonging to the mosasaur family, not a dinosaur. It swam in the sea during the Late Cretaceous.1

Plesiotylosaurus was named by C. L. Camp in 1942 based on a skull and jaws found in the Moreno Formation of California.13

Scientists still debate whether Plesiotylosaurus should be considered a separate genus or if it is actually a species of Prognathodon, because their skulls are so similar.1
