A hypothetical earliest Tylosaurine, just after the split with Plioplatecarpines. No fossils of such basal Tylosaurs are known, but based on other early #Mosasaurs it’d be leggy and noodly. Inspired by @tyrantlzrdqueen.bsky.social’s research/discussion on the Skeleton Crew. #sciart #paleoart #lizard

A colored-pencil drawing of a slender and sinuous early Tylosaurine mosasaur on a white background. Its head is slender and sharply pointed, with a streak of yellowish orange running along the upper lip. The lower jaw is a sickly green, as is the tail (also marked by vertical stripes). Its mouth is open and the small, pointed teeth of the lower jaw are visible. The rest of the body is a dull tan with faint, disorganized speckles. The limbs are relatively short and the hands and feet form relatively broad, webbed paddles with visible digits and claws. The tip of the curling tail is formed into a modest paddle, with a very short upper lobe. This is a speculative and hypothetical depiction, as no such fossils of early Tylosaurs are known but by the laws of biology and phylogenetics it must have existed at some point.
