In Depth
Auroroborealia is a genus of small icnthyosaur that lived during the late Triassic. The fragmentary nature of the holotype fossils of Auroroborealia mean that many details of Auroroborealia are uncertain. Auroroborealia however seems to have been a small bodied ichthyosaur with short jaws.
