Plasticity and convergence in the evolution of short-necked plesiosaurs [PDF]

, 2017
peer reviewedPlesiosaurs were the longest-surviving group of secondarily marine tetrapods, comparable in diversity to today’s cetaceans. During their long evolutionary history, which spanned the Jurassic and the Cretaceous (201 to 66 Ma), plesiosaurs ...

New plesiosaur fossils from the Pliensbachian (Early Jurassic) of Bornholm, including the first juvenile specimen from Denmark

Plesiosaurs were an extremely successful, globally distributed group that thrived from the Late Triassic to the end of the Cretaceous Period. The Early/Middle Jurassic faunal turnover greatly affected plesiosaur evolution, although it remains poorly ...
