Patagonian plesiosaurs are among the first Mesozoic reptiles described in South America. However, they are scarcely known, and most of the findings are recent. They are scarce compared to the record of the Northern Hemisphere, but concerning the taxonomic diversity and wide temporal distribution, they are the referents of Gondwana.

Leptocleidus Andrews, 1922 is a poorly known plesiosaur genus from Lower Cretaceous successions of the UK, South Africa, and Australia. Historically, there has been little consensus regarding its phylogenetic position within Plesiosauria, largely because of its seemingly aberrant combination of a relatively small skull and short neck.

This paper offers a re-description of one of the oldest (Lower Hettangian, Lower Jurassic) plesiosaurians (Reptilia: Sauropterygia) from Germany and discusses its phylogenetic relevance. Lindwurmia thiuda, new genus and species, is a moderately sized plesiosaur (estimated size between 2 and 3 m long) exhibiting several plesiomorphic features.

Plesiosaurs and mosasaurs are identified from the Puskwaskau Formation of west-central Alberta, Canada. These deposits record the final stages during which the Western Interior Seaway remained open to the Boreal Sea to the North and therefore are important for determining the ranges of high-latitude marine reptiles.

Abstract An account is given of the skull of a large pliosauroid plesiosaur from the lowermost Hettangian (Lower Lias; Lower Jurassic) of Barrow upon Soar, Leicestershire, identified as Rhomaleosaurus megacephalus (Stutchbury, 1846). It is proposed as the neotype of the species, as the holotype was destroyed in an air-raid on Bristol ...

Pliosaurs are plesiosaurs with short necks and large heads. The Kronosaurus queenslandicus specimen from the Early Cretaceous of Australia on exhibit in the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard is perhaps the best known example. Brachauchenius lucasi Williston 1903 (USNM 4989; Fig.
