The front half of the outer edges of the fenestrae are formed by the postorbitals internally, but these bones are excluded from the exterior surface by the contacts between two pairs of skull roof bones, the postfrontals and supratemporals.

Since members of type A have proportionately longer trunks and shorter tails than type B, the researchers considered type A to be the females, although no pregnant specimens are known to confirm this. In modern lizards, the larger trunks of females increase the amount of room for eggs. While as an ichthyopterygian,

However, when the models were scaled to the actual size of the animals, it became clear that ichthyosauriforms became increasingly efficient swimmers in their first 25 million years of evolution, largely due to body size. Additionally, while Triassic ichthyosaurs such as
