Description
Acuetzpalin (meaning "water lizard" in Classical Nahuatl) is an extinct genus of opthalmosaurid ichthyosaur found in La Casita Formation in México. It is known from a partial skeleton (missing the limbs), of which the skull is surprisingly well preserved. It was the first ichthyosaur described in 2020 and the first new ichthyosaur genus described since 2017Related content
