These include the sophisticated pattern of ridges on the bottom of the parasphenoid, parasphenoid bone on its palate; the narrow openings in the palate bordered by the pterygoid bones; the lack of perforations in the surface of the coracoid; and the highly unusual arrangement of gastralia, or belly ribs, which is only otherwise seen in the non-polycotylid ''Cryptoclidus' ...
