'Cymbospondylus' buchseri (Sander 1989, Middle Triassic, Anisian/Landinian) was considered a species of Cymbospondylus, but here nests between Guizhouichthyosaurus and Shonisaurus popularis.
Similar to a mosasaur by convergence, C. buchseri was a large ichthyosaur known from a presacral skeleton and a long, narrow skull with a flat cranium. |
