“…Its placement along the anterior margin of the ventral side is similar to Ophthalmosaurus icenicus (Moon & Kirton, 2016) There are three distal articular facets for a preaxial accessory element, and the radius and ulna. This is similar to all other SML ophthalmosaurids (including the partial humerus of the Palvennia hoybergeti holotype) with the exception of Cryopterygius kristiansenae, which has two facets on one humerus and three facets on the other in addition to several other ophthalmosaurids e. g. Caypullisaurus bonapartei, Acamptonectes densus and Undorosaurus (Fernández, 1997;Efimov, 1999a;Druckenmiller et al, 2012;Fischer et al, 2012;Arkhangelsky & Zverkov, 2014;Roberts et al, 2014;Delsett et al, 2017). In contrast, Aegirosaurus leptospondylus, Maiaspondylus lindoei, Grendelius and Brachypterygius extremus have a third facet for the intermedium (McGowan, 1976;Bardet & Fernández, 2000;Maxwell & Caldwell, 2006;Zverkov, Arkhangelsky & Stenshin, 2015), whereas Platypterygius americanus has a third facet for a postaxial accessory element (Maxwell & Kear, 2010).…”
