Plesiosaurus Tooth in Matrix

The Science

Plesiosaurs are marine reptiles that lived during the Age of Reptiles (Mesozoic Era). They had four flat flippers, a long neck, and a small head. Their name means "near lizard".

The Story

These plesiosaur teeth are exceptionally well-preserved. Each specimen is presented "in matrix" - meaning, it is surrounded by sandy-colored rock. Each tooth is approximately the same size, but the volume of matrix may vary.
