化石拍卖（鱼类和海洋脊椎动物）

来自摩洛哥的美丽翻石龙齿颚骨，特征是带根部的牙齿以及部分颌骨。骨头已被部分修复，但化石的天然孔隙仍清晰可见。它是在胡尔里巴加的磷矿沉积层中被发现的。这种白垩纪海洋爬行动物曾是那个时代最大的海洋掠食者之一。

Mosasaurus 是最后一批莫拉瑟蜥之一，也是体型最大的之一。与大多数莫拉瑟蜥一样，四肢演化为短而高效的鳍肢，前鳍肢比后鳍肢大。已知最大种类 Mosasaurus hoffmannii 的长度可达 17–18 米（约 56 英尺），略长于近亲如 Tylosaurus 和 Hainosaurus。它也是最强健的莫拉瑟蜥之一，一些大型个体估计体重大约在 25 到 30 吨之间。其身体长而厚，呈桶形，头骨巨大，下颌强劲且紧密连接。眼睛相对较大，但很可能提供有限的双眼视力，嗅球发育也不充分，使专家们认为 Mosasaurus 主要生活在水面附近。）

Beautiful Mosasaur jaw from Morocco, featuring teeth with roots and part of the mandibular bone. The bone has been partially restored, but the natural porosity of the fossil is still clearly visible. It was discovered in the phosphate deposits of Khouribga. This Cretaceous marine reptile was one of the largest ocean predators of its time.
Mosasaurus was among the last mosasaurs and also one of the largest. Like most mosasaurs, its limbs had evolved into short but efficient flippers, with the front flippers larger than the rear ones. The largest known species, Mosasaurus hoffmannii, could reach lengths of 17–18 meters (56 feet), slightly longer than close relatives such as Tylosaurus and Hainosaurus. It was also one of the most robust mosasaurs, with some of the largest individuals estimated to weigh between 25 and 30 tons. Its body was long, thick, and barrel-shaped, with a massive skull and a powerful, tightly connected jaw. The eyes were relatively large but likely provided limited binocular vision, and the olfactory bulbs were not well developed, leading experts to believe that Mosasaurus lived primarily near the water’s surface.
