who ever said plesiosaurs were scaly???? and I thought they had 4 fins 2 on either side of the body not like a flipper like the sealDonald wrote:More trivia/error pointing if you care:
I've no idea why they called it Pleo. The only dinosaur-like creatures with a name close to that are pliosaurs, a type of plesiosaur. But they're not even a dinosaur, more like a scaley seal. Or a crocodile.

Not much is known about their skin, the one species they've found soft tissue prints from apparently had skin described as smooth, but it is by no means definitive of the entire order nor means that it couldn't have been something akin to sea snakes, very smooth but still scaled
But to help relate the fact that their skin is fundamentally different to mammalian but they most likely swam like one, I said scaley seal. Like a crocodile because they're toothed and a reptile, but not a dinosaur. Although crocodiles and dinosaurs (same infraclass) are closer than plesiosaurs and crocodiles (same subclass), and all three are in a different subclass to turtles. But they (plesiosaurs) are in the same infraclass as lizards and snakes, which typically have quite smooth skin (but scaled).
Also, pentadactyl limb - not a fin in the fishy sense, but I suppose you could class flippers/fins as the same thing in a reptilian/mammalian sense.

Is that better?

Donald's last post is clearly an advanced (if somewhat metaphorical) description of the bodywork.
