OverviewPlease note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Carpenter's tearing lizard, Dakosaurus carpenteri Wilkinson, Young and Benton, 2008, is an extinct aquatic crocodyliform archosaur known from fossils from England of the Late Jurassic (late Kimmeridgian). The name Dakosaurus means tearing lizard , and is derived from the Greek Dakos- ( to tear ) and -sauros ( lizard ). Dakosaurus species lived during the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous. They were large, with teeth that were serrated and flattened from side to side. Its extensive adaptation to a marine lifestyle indicates that it most likely mated at sea, but no eggs or nests have been discovered that have been referred to Dakosaurus, so whether it gave birth to live young at sea like dolphins and ichthyosaurs or came ashore like turtles is not known.
