Ichthyosaur Origin Might Predate Permian-Triassic Extinction Event
Oxytropidoceras posted a topic in Fossil News
Oldest 'fish-lizard' fossils ever found suggests these sea monsters survived the 'Great Dying' By Harry Baker, LIveScience, March 18, 2023 The fossilized remains of an ichthyosaur dating back to shortly after the Permian mass extinction suggest that the ancient sea monsters emerged before the catastrophic event Oldest sea reptile from Age of Dinosaurs found on Arctic island Uppsla University, March 13, 2023 The paper is: Kear, B.P., Engelschiøn, V.S., Hammer, Ø., Roberts, A.J. & Hurum, J.H., 2023: Earliest Triassic ichthyosaur fossils push back oceanic reptile origins.
