Descripción
Elasmosaurids are a monophyletic group of cosmopolitan plesiosaurs with extremely long necks. Although abundant elasmosaurid material has been collected from the Upper Cretaceous of Antarctica, skull material is extremely rare. Here, new elasmosaurid cranial material from the lower Maastrichtian levels of the Cape Lamb Member (Snow Hill Island Formation) on Vega Island, Antarctica is described. The studied specimen (MLP 15-I-7-6) is a non-aristonectine elasmosaurid but shows a palate morphology characterized by the absence of a posterior interpterygoid symphysis and a posterior plate-like extension of the pterygoids, features previously associated with the aristonectine palatal structure. The specimen MLP 15-I-7-6 thus provides an indication that these palatal features are also present in non-aristonectine Weddellian elasmosaurids, and makes available additional evidence of the close phylogenetical relationship between the aristonectines and some Weddellian non-aristonectine elasmosaurids.
