An excellent series of displays showing off the different marine reptile groups: mosasaurs, ichtyosaurs, sea crocodiles, turtles, nothosaurs, plesiosaurs, placodonts, and mesosaurs. (The only Permian marine reptiles)

Paleovember 2023, Henodus!
You may look at this turtle-looking creature, with it's carapace and plastron, as well as it's aquatic habitat, and think to yourself, "hey, what a funky looking turtle!" Turns out, it's NOT a turtle. Not even close. Henodus is a member of a group of Triassic reptiles called placodonts that were relatives of plesiosaurs; turtles wouldn't evolve until much later. Henodus itself lived about 227 mya in Germany, and is unique among placodonts for living in freshwater habitats without coming onto land, and scraping vegetation off rocks.

Henodus
This is not a turtle. This is not a swimming ankylosaur. This is not a drowning glyptodont. This is not a lizard stuck in a clam. This is not some Lovecraftian creature. This is not a sunflower seed. This is not a dream.

A macropredatory placodont of coral reefs. It is a generalist , hunting anything it can starting from big fish to ammonites or even land animals. It can move on land rather clumsy , but energetic. Males are highly territorial , fighting for place on the coast and mates. Top predator of coral reefs but not so powrful on land or open waters , where even biggers carnivores live.

Dunkleosteus terrelli – Voracious Orb
Tumblr media
Dunkleosteus looks like the violent brute it was: powerfully built and armour-plated round its head. It was bulkier and coral reef-style marine fishes on Holocene.
Both Dunkleosteus and this modern day relative was lamprey, smaller than Dunkleosteus.
The top ocean predator of the time, its prey could have included early sharks, large nautiluslike mollusks, arthropods and other placoderms, including both past and present day animals and monsters recently on the Earth via drift portal.
Thanks for scientists and paleoartist are revamped their appearance of Dunkleosteus, because of Queen Arianna.

"The strangest of the Placodonts was Henodus from the Triassic strata near Tübingen in Germany. It had a square head and its short body was enclosed in armor like that of a turtle."
Prehistoric Sea Monsters. Written by Dr. Josef Augusta. Illustrated by Zdeněk Burian. 1966.

A Triassic Weirdo is any organism or group of organisms that first appeared in the Triassic and last appeared in the Triassic, with no descendants reaching the Jurassic. As this period was preceded by a major mass extinction, and followed by a major mass extinction, this leads to a *lot* of very unique organisms for the time period.

only using animals completely diverged from extant reptiles here, also I know thecodont is an outdated term but I'm using it for convenience's sake, also if you don't know what I mean by the second to last choice, I mean drepanosaurs and assorted gliding lizards (also weird is used in a positive manner here)

There aren't a lot of perfect Pokémon, but there is Lapras
SCRIPT: It shouldn't be possible not to love Lapras. It is a combination dinosaur and sea turtle which will ferry you across the sea while singing to you. The appeal of a lot of pokémon has a tendency to be bombastic - this pokémon is the most powerful, this one is the most stylish, this one tramples, this one slices, this one dices, that one electrocutes and that one burns.
Lapras offers a different but equally powerful and important appeal. This isn't the imaginary monster friend who takes you on epic adventures to defeat the most powerful beasts in the land, this is the imaginary monster friend who sails you to a faraway and beautiful place, who comforts and protects you in stormy seas, and always, always gets you back home safe. Think Falcor from the Neverending story, or, indeed, the Iron Giant. That's what Lapras is.
And the design is genuinely fantastic. It's a combination Plesiosaurus and sea turtle, with a bit of placodont in there, rendered out in graceful proportion with a bit of mottling and shell bumps to give it a mature and grown-up look. The Gigantamax form is all of that taken up in intensity, with more musical theming, but without really changing that much because why fix what ain't broke?
Yes I have a Gen 1 bias, but I think Lapras is perfect.
