640:, was preserved in four pieces. They were originally connected by calcite vein-filled cracks, but were separated during preparation. Three of these four pieces found made up the rostrum. When aligned, the rostrum shape suggested dorsal curvature of the anterior end of the maxilla but ventral deflection in the anterior end of premaxilla. The prefrontal, however, came down ventrally under the margin of the maxilla and contacts the anterior tip of the suborbital process A line drawn from the preserved anterior alveolar margin of the maxilla to the lower edge of the prefrontal showed that the ventral margin of the maxilla was straight, very similar to the rostral structure known of 111: 482: 745: 855: 622: 132: 783:) have a relatively short rostrum, distinct from the elongate primitive condition, with convergent lateral margins that terminate in a pointed tip. It is also characteristic of their supratemporal to contact the frontal bone, having a heavy postorbital bar, diastema present that separates the premaxillary from the maxillary teeth, and a deep lower jaw. The Thalattosauroidea are easily distinguished by their down-turned snouts. In 1598: 1581: 646:. Upon further examination, the other characteristics found true of this fossil were a striated external surface of bone with smooth bone resembling "pseudodont teeth". The first of which was blunt, procumbent and short, the second was pointed and thinner, with the third (although the tip was broken) the thick base implied a blunt tooth. There was an additional broken stump which may suggest a fourth tooth. 800: 842:
specimens from Wapiti Lake are preserved in sandstones, suggestive of shallow water conditions. It is likely that they often spent their time near the shore instead of deep-sea, open-water environments. Its remains were found in a marine shale and marl environment, which suggests it fed on marine

was named after its Northern discovery location, with Thalattosaurus meaning "ocean lizard" and borealis coming from boreas (Greek word, βορέας) meaning "Northern." Discovered elements include the anterior part of skull, incomplete mandible, centra, isolated ribs, and left pterygoid.

The environment it was found in was a shelly/skeletal limestone with a horizon composed largely of broken shells. It was estimated to be from the 527:. The fossil found by Annie Alexander in 1903 had much of original bone in preorbital area gone, vomer was exposed, an incomplete mandible, two dorsal ribs and centra, and three articulated caudal vertebrae pressed against the vomer. 765:
