Depicted Animals

Cyamodus hildegardis  PEYER, 1931
1.3 M    243 MYA   

Systematics: Cyamodontidae, Placodontia, Sauropterygia, Diapsida, Reptilia
Habitat: marine; coastal

A placodont well known from the Middle Triassic of the Monte San Giorgio, Switzerland. Cyamodus was heavily armored with a dorsal two-part carapace and lived as a slow swimmer in shallow marine waters hovering close to the sea floor like modern phytophagous sea cows. The powerful jaws and palatal dentition composed of large flat teeth of the placodonts were adapted to crush hard shelled food (e.g. molluscs, crustaceans, echinoderms).
