This image is derived from plate 22 in Merriam (1903), done by an uncredited artist. Original description: Leptocheirus zitteli n. gen. and sp. Figures reproduced natural size from the type specimen. Fig. 1. — Superior side of left anterior limb. r, radius. Fig. 2. — Posterior limb. t, tibia.

Partial skull and anterior cervical vertebrae of unidentified pliosaurid plesiosaurian (MPPL 18797) from the uppermost Callovian–middle Oxfordian of Kaberlaba (Asiago, Italy), in left lateral view. Photograph (A) and explanatory drawing (B). White, preserved bone surfaces; dark grey, preserved margins of skull fenestrae; light grey, eroded bone surface; cross hatching, broken bone.

(A) View of the original downside in the field and the best preserved side as it experienced the least disruption by scavenging sharks. (B) Detail of midbody region showing the large gastroliths that settled downwards onto the inside of the right, dorsal ribs. This region was hit by the excavator bucket with the partial loss of ribs and an unknown number of gastroliths. Fortuitously, the broken blocks hosting gastroliths can be removed and their contents inspected from several sides. Scalebar is 10 cm.
