Mauriciosaurus (meaning "Mauricio [Fernández Garza's] reptile") is a genus of polycotylid plesiosaur from the Late Cretaceous of Mexico. It contains a single species, M. fernandezi (also named after Fernández Garza), described in 2017 by Eberhard Frey and colleagues from a single well-preserved juvenile specimen about 1.9 metres (6 ft 3 in) long. Morphologically, it is overall most similar to the polycotyline polycotylids Trinacromerum and Dolichorhynchops. However, several features separate Mauriciosaurus from all other polycotylids, warranting the naming of a new genus. These include the sophisticated pattern of ridges on the bottom of the parasphenoid bone on its palate; the narrow openings in the palate bordered by the pterygoid bones; the lack of perforations in the surface of the cor

  • Mauriciosaurus ("lagarto de Mauricio Fernández Garza") es un género extinto de plesiosauroide policotílido, que vivió en el Cretácico tardío, en lo que hoy es Nuevo León, en México. Medía cerca de 2 metros de longitud corporal y su principal atractivo es el gran estado de preservación que posee.​ (es)

  • Mauriciosaurus (il cui nome significa "rettile di Mauricio [Fernández Garza]") è un genere estinto di plesiosauro polycotylide vissuto nel Cretaceo superiore, circa 94-92 milioni di anni fa (Turoniano), in quello che oggi è il Messico. Il genere contiene una singola specie, ossia M. fernandezi, descritta nel 2017 da Eberhard Frey e colleghi da un singolo esemplare giovanile ben conservato lungo circa 1,9 metri. Dal punto di vista morfologico, nel complesso l'animale risulta essere molto più simile ai polycotylidi polycotylinae, come Trinacromerum e Dolichorhynchops. Tuttavia, diverse caratteristiche separano Mauriciosaurus da tutti gli altri polycotylidi, giustificando la denominazione di un nuovo genere. Questi includono il modello sofisticato di creste sul fondo dell'osso parasfenoide su (it)
