The skull of the Saurichthys is a kind of fish. This piece is cleaned with pneumatic pen, so the skull can appear more three-dimensional, and many parts can be preserved. This head is very large, if it had a body, the total length may be more than 1.5 meters. It's very much like an ichthyosaur, but not an ichthyosaur. The eye sockets and teeth are particularly prominent on this skull! The matrix is about 27*20*2 cm and the skull is about 21 cm. Species of Saurichthys had an elongate bodyform superficially similar to the modern garfish. Its dorsal and anal fins were placed opposite each other well back on the body, and the tail was symmetrical. These features would have made it a powerful swimmer, and it is presumed to have hunted in a similar way to the pike, attacking from an ambush at high speed. Its jaws were extremely long, making up a third of the total body length, and ended in a sharp, beak-like tip.
