A large osteoderm-bearing rib from the Upper Triassic Kossen Formation (Norian/Rhaetian) of eastern Switzerland

Torsten M. Scheyer et al.

Summary: Researchers have discovered an incomplete rib specimen in the Alpine region, which is believed to belong to the small clade of marine reptiles known as the Saurosphargidae. Previously, this clade was only known to exist during the Anisian stage of the Middle Triassic, but this new find extends their occurrence by approximately 35 million years into the Late Triassic.

Early giant reveals faster evolution of large body size in ichthyosaurs than in cetaceans

P. Martin Sander et al.

Summary: The body sizes of marine amniotes vary greatly and the factors driving this diversity are still largely unknown. This study found that, despite the absence of modern primary producers, the Middle Triassic marine food webs were able to support several large-bodied ichthyosaurs, showcasing rapid size evolution.

Cranial anatomy of Besanosaurus leptorhynchus Dal Sasso & Pinna, 1996 (Reptilia: Ichthyosauria) from the Middle Triassic Besano Formation of Monte San Giorgio, Italy/Switzerland: taxonomic and palaeobiological implications

Gabriele Bindellini et al.

Summary: Besanosaurus leptorhynchus was described based on a fossil excavated near Besano nearly three decades ago. The study found that it had an extremely long snout, primarily feeding on small elusive prey lower in the food chain. This ecological specialization may have triggered an increase in body size and helped maintain low competition.
