Very cool! I confess that I had not even heard of Dinocephalosaurus before.

While the first Archosauromorph example, it is not an uncommon adaptation in aquatic Saurians.

It looks a lot like a Tanystropheus but its neck is not as elongated.

Cool discovery. But even though dinocehalosaurus looks more specialized than tanystropheus, is it possible it may have been still semiaquatic? If so, than this live birth could imply that some other early archosaurs might have carried this characteristic as oppose to it being an adaptation for fully aquatic life.

Ah, good 'ole dinocephalosaurus has some time in the spotlight.

I have loved dinocephalosaurus for a while. I didn't know it was aquatic, though.
