Mosasaurus, in Dutch also called Maas monster, is a genus of extinct marine reptiles from the family Mosasauridae. The first fossil remains were found near Maastricht in the Sint-Pietersberg, which lies on the bank of the river Maas (Latin: Mosa), and Mosasaurus is named after the river. The species within this genus lived during the Maastrichtian, the last part of the Cretaceous period, approximately 75 to 65 million years ago.
