Paleobiota of the Kristianstad Basin

The Kristianstad Basin is a Cretaceous-age structural basin and geological formation in northeastern Skåne, the southernmost province of Sweden. The sediments in the basin preserves a wide assortment of taxa represented in its fossil record, including the only non-avian dinosaur fossils in Sweden and one of the world's most diverse mosasaur faunas.

Though a majority of the taxa listed below lived during the latest early Campanian (c. 80.5 million years ago; fossils from the site Ivö Klack alone from this time compromise about 40 vertebrate species and more than 200 invertebrate species),[1] the Kristianstad Basin preserves fossils ranging in age from the early Santonian (c. 86.3 million years ago) to the early Maastrichtian (c. 72.1 million years ago); some of the animals in the list were not contemporaries, but separated from each other in time by several million years. The time spans from which fossils have been recovered is included for each species in the list.

Åsen, Ullstorp Earliest Campanian – latest Early Campanian Four maxillary teeth, a dentary tooth, two caudal vertebrae, one right manual phalanx Morphology of the teeth recovered corresponds roughly to Leptoceratops. Given that the teeth lack some of the ridges present in the teeth of Leptoceratops, and because of geographical distance, the Åsen leptoceratopsid is likely a new taxon. [32][33]

[10][44][11]

Similar in body size (and likely ecological niche) to the earlier Tylosaurus ivoensis. [45][46]
Platecarpus P. sp. Ivö Klack, Åsen, Ullstorp Earliest Campanian – latest Early Campanian Several detached tooth crowns, fragments of a jawbone Previously referred to Platecarpus somenensis. The material referred to Platecarpus might be non-diagnostic. [8][10][44][47]

The quadrate is from a younger (Maastrichtian) layer than the other mosasaurs. [9][48]
Prognathodon P. sp. Ivö Klack, Åsen Latest Early Campanian Isolated teeth, fragments of a jawbone, vertebrae A mosasaur at about 8 meters in length with relatively wide and deep jaws. Bite marks matching Prognathodon teeth have been found on plesiosaur bones in the Kristianstad Basin. Frequently treated and listed under the name "Dollosaurus" or "Prognathodon (Dollosaurus)"; Dollosaurus being a junior synonym of Prognathodon. [10][42][49]
Tylosaurus T. ivoensis Ivö Klack, Ugnsmunnarna, Ignaberga, Åsen, Axeltorp, Balsberg Latest Early Campanian – early Late Campanian Several marginal teeth, pterygoid teeth, partial jawbones and several vertebrae Previously referred to Mosasaurus and Hainosaurus. The largest mosasaur in the basin and "undoubtedly" its top predator, the lower jaw of Tylosaurus ivoensis is estimated to have been over 1.5 meters in length. [50][10][44][51][11]

Plesiosaurs

[edit]

The last comprehensive review of the plesiosaur fauna in the Kristianstad Basin was done by paleontologist Per-Ove Persson in the 1960s and his taxonomy is still used with caution, pending a much-needed new review.[38]

Scanisaurus is no longer considered a valid taxon, but the name continues to be used for practical purposes. S. nazarowi is the type species of Scanisaurus and was previously referred to Cimoliasaurus. [10][56][57]

Note: Although the Kristianstad Basin is incredibly rich in invertebrate fossils and diversity, with hundreds of species, the creation of a full list is impossible due to a lack of published overviews and recent examinations.[63] Which lists are incomplete is specified below and estimates in regards to how many species are actually present are included if possible.
