Rhomaleosaurid plesiosaurs, a group of Mesozoic aquatic reptiles, are known from a number of well preserved skeletons. The research outlined here seeks to update our understanding of pliosaur cranial anatomy, assess the status of the genus Rhomaleosaurus, and test the monophyly of the Rhomaleosauridae. Lower Jurassic pliosaurs may be subdivided by stage.
