A pair of Morturneria’s keep moving to stop the ice from freezing over there breathing hole over the winter period.

Steller’s sea cow was, yes. Morturneria we can’t tell, but I don’t imagine a filter-feeding plesiosaur would be especially aggressive either.

南極の白亜期末の地層で見つかった首長竜AristonectesとMorturneriaは歯列などから濾過食性だったとされてる。水柱じゃなくてコククジラのように海底からではないかと言われてるけど

I would like to be a drawer of all life that is extinct but recently it's just been pterosaurs
Ventral view of a Rhamphorhynchus flying under a bright blue sky, wings fully open, while looking down towards the pov. Two Infernodrakon on an open field covered by ferns during sunset, one glides low in the air, the other chases behind on the ground. A Zhejiangopterus standing on a mountaintop, reaching out its broken wing towards the mountains, hills and clouds below. An inscription in Chinese says “My First Visit to the Western Hill” and the date for June 15th, 2025 in the lunar calendar. An azhdarchid pterosaur standing on sea ice looking at a Morturneria plesiosaur coming to the surface for air.

Morturneria or Abyssosaurus would be awesome!

I draw dead reptiles and pretty skies

In the foreground there’s a Velociraptor foot sticking up from the ground, and a bleeding raptor head on the ground.

.... sieve-like batteries. Bizarrely, the lower jaw teeth of Morturneria are directed outwards and downwards from the jaw edges. #plesiosaurs #marinereptiles

We think that _all_ #plesiosaurs (plus the members of related groups) were endothermic based on bone histology and isotopic data from tooth enamel.

Our main character here is the aristonectine elasmosaurid Morturneria, named in 1989. It was originally named Turneria, but this was changed in 1994 when it was noticed how that name was already in use for an ant. Concept art by Gabriel

The one environment that even PhP cannot extensively explore.
Screenshot: a reef environment in the Maastrichtian; a Mosasaurus enjoying 'cleaning service'. Screenshot: glowing ammonite rises up from deep sea to breed. Screenshot: open ocean; Xiphactinus devouring a baitball. Screenshot: Antarctic seas; Morturneria mother and young.

The backdrops are sometimes just as breathtaking as the creatures themselves.
Screenshot: Barsboldia marching in a desolation amidst great dust storms. Screenshot: Isisaurus marching through a violent volcanic landscape. Screenshot: a flapling's first flight takes it through a lush patch of wetland. Screenshot: Morturneria congregate at a breathing hole in the middle of great patches of sea ice.

MORTURNERIA. from the new video (www.youtube.com/watch?v=VF8v...) I made about Sauropterygians. Morturneria lived in Antartica during the late Cretaceous, it might sound familiar for its apearance in #PrehistoricPlanet #morturneria #paleoart #sciart #marinereptile #sauropterygia #marinereptile

here's today's #Paleostream sketches!!!

today we drew Morturneria, Atopodentatus, Comptonatus, and Trigonosaurus
a Morturneria sifts through silt by some small icebergs an Atopodentatus gives birth in a carbonate platform a Comptonatus vibes in a body of water, trees can be seen in the back a Trigonosaurus with multiple healed pathologies in its tail walks across a sand dune, clouds can be seen in the back

And finally, I was also super happy when I was asked to do the concept design for Morturneria, the filter-feeding plesiosaur that you see at the end of the episode
