This is An artist's rendering of Dinocephalosaurus orientalis, a long-necked sea reptile that probably preyed on fish and squid in a shallow sea in present-day southeast China more than 230 million years ago. The creature's relatively stiff, 1.7-meter-long neck was almost twice as long as its trunk, which measured less than one meter in length. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of this illustration of Dinocephalosaurus orientalis. It must be noted, however, that the tail and soft tissues, including the muscles, were not preserved with the skeleton. Also illustrated: Saurichthys curionii and schools of semionotid fish.
