Callovian Marine Reptiles of European Russia

Diversity
Our knowledge of marine reptiles of the Callovian age (Middle Jurassic) is majorly based on the collections from the Oxford Clay Formation of England, which yielded a diverse marine reptile fauna of plesiosaurians, ichthyosaurians, and thalattosuchians ...

A tooth of a marine crocodylomorph from the Jurassic of the Cracow-Czestochowa Upland [PDF]

, 2007
An incomplete tooth-crown showing the features characteristic of marine crocodylomorphs of the family Metriorhynchidae has been found in glauconitic marls from the uppermost Callovian/lowermost Oxfordian of Ogrodzieniec, situated in the southern part of ...

Re-description of a putative Early Cretaceous “teleosaurid” from France, with implications for the survival of metriorhynchids and teleosaurids across the Jurassic-Cretaceous Boundary

, 2014
Thalattosuchia was a diverse clade of marine crocodylomorphs known from the Early Jurassic to the Early Cretaceous. Recent studies have hypothesized that their extinction was two-phased: (1) habitat loss near/at the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary heavily ...

Morphology of the sacral region and reproductive strategies of Metriorhynchidae: a counter-inductive approach [PDF]

, 2019
Morphological and physiological features indicate Metriorhynchidae as the only group of crocodylomorphs with a pelagic lifestyle. Some of these features have evolved convergently in several clades of tetrapods secondarily adapted to aquatic life.

Thalattosuchian crocodylomorphs from the Sinemurian (Early Jurassic) of the UK [PDF]

Thalattosuchian crocodylomorphs were a ubiquitous component of shallow marine ecosystems during the Jurassic and Early Cretaceous. Alas, their origins remain a mystery.
