  1. 🦴🔬 A #fossil sitting in a #museum drawer since 1979 turned out to be a brand new species: *#Tylosaurus rex*.

    Lead researcher Amelia Zietlow (#AMNH) noticed that a #Texas #mosasaur specimen labeled as a known species didn’t match its relatives. The 13-meter-long apex #predator had serrated #teeth, massive jaw #muscles, and battle #scars from fights with its own kind.

  6. The new CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Popular Tylosaurus figure has an incredible amount of detail.

    Make it yours: everythingdinosaur.info/collec

    ✅ ram on the snout
    ✅ pterygoid teeth
    ✅ glottis and forked tongue
    ✅ hypocercal tail

    It is a highly accurate representation of Tylosaurus proriger. The model reflects links to the Squamata.

  21. It's marine reptile Wednesday!

    Here is an old acrylic painting from 2021, depicting a Cretoxyrhina (shark, top left), two Squalicorax (sharks, bottom right), and two Tylosaurus (juvenile left, adult right). This was a private commission.
