Triassic Period, circa 250 million years B.P.Sold for (Inc. bp): £845
Complete Keichousaurus hui skeleton on a rectangular matrix. 2.8 kg, 35.5 cm

Keichousaurus was a late Triassic marine reptile, and a member of the Pleurosaur family, and went extinct 250 million years ago during the Triassic-Jurassic extinction event. They were specialised fish eaters, and were highly unusual amongst marine reptiles in that they gave birth to live young rather than laying eggs.
