Late Cretaceous plesiosaur teeth from Axel Heiberg Island, Nunavut, Canada / Deborah Vandermark, John A. Tarduno, Donald B. Brinkman.
Title: | Late Cretaceous plesiosaur teeth from Axel Heiberg Island, Nunavut, Canada / Deborah Vandermark, John A. Tarduno, Donald B. Brinkman. |
Author(s): | Vandermark, Deborah. Tarduno, John A. Brinkman, Donald B. |
Date: | 2006. |
In: | Arctic. (2006.), Vol. 59(1) (2006) |
Abstract: | Reports discovery of plesiosaur teeth from non-marine strata on Axel Heiberg Island. Specimens found most closely resemble teeth of elasmosaurs, with smooth outer surface and crenulated inner surface (crenulations extending nearly to tip of tooth). Presence of plesiosaur in non-marine strata supports suggestion that juvenile elasmosaurs frequently inhabited freshwater environments. |
Notes: | Arctic. Vol. 59(1) :79-82 (2006). French abstract. |
