Template:Infobox MammalGomphotherium, meaning "welded beast", is an extinct genus of proboscidean which evolved in the early Miocene of North America from 13.65 to 3.6 million years ago, existing for about 10 million years. The genus emigrated into Asia, Europe and Africa after a drop in sea level (probably during the Tortonian stage of the Miocene) allowed them to cross over. It survived into the Pliocene, and its remains have been found in Chile, France, Germany, Austria, Kansas, Tennessee, Pa

Scene From Ancient Seas A pliosaur Pliosaurus funkei attacks a plesiosaur. Painting by Raul Martin (National Geographic Magazine Dec. 2008) Sea Monsters of the North: Day 11-Skull Discovered at Last! http://on.natgeo.com/P3Es3l Enormous "Sea Monster"; Fossil Found in Norway http://www.redorbit.com/ Predator X - Pliosaurus funkei http://theropoda.blogspot.com Eight seasons of fieldwork in the Upper Jurassic black shales of the Slottsmøya Member of the Agardhfjellet Formation (Upper Jurassic; Middle Volgian) in the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard have yielded numerous skeletal remains of plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs. Among the new discoveries from the Slottsmøya Member are two very large specimens of short-necked plesiosaurians. Dental and postcranial morphology suggest that they represent a new species of the genus Pliosaurus, a taxon known from several specimens of Kimmeridgian and Tithonian-aged strata in England, France and Russia. Skeletal dimensions of this new taxon suggest that it was one of the largest members of the Pliosauridae and that it possessed comparatively longer front limbs than other known pliosaurids. A morphometric analysis of pliosaurids indicates they had a wide range of interspecific variability in relative paddle lengths compared to body size.
