First remains of the head of “Steneosaurus” (Crocodylomorpha: Teleosauridae) from the Late Jurassic of Oker (Lower Saxony, Germany)
Abstract Two remains of the head region of the Late Jurassic marine crocodile Steneosaurus brevirostris Owen, 1842 are described from the Kimmeridgian of the Langenberg near Oker, Lower Saxony, Germany. They consist of fragments of a rostrum and a lower jaw (mandible) and represent the first record of parts of the head from this locality. A comparison with similar materials of the nearly contemporary Steneosaurus jugleri (V. Meyer, 1845) and St. picteti (De Tribolet, 1873) suggest that the latter two species are synonymous with St. brevirostris.
