Mosasaurs are large, extinct marine reptiles from the Late Cretaceous period, which include the Plateycarpus and the Prognathnodon. Their fossil remains were first discovered in a limestone quarry in 1764 at Maastricht on the Meuse. They belong to the order Squamata, which is the largest order of reptiles.
