A beach nodule off the Yorkshire coast. On the outside at least three bones of a Plesiosaur are clearly shown.

Four different Plesiosaurs are recorded from the Yorkshire coast. Rhomalaeosaurus is the biggest. Hauffiosaurus is medium sized and Microcleidus is the smallest. Stenarosaurus is still a doubtful genus.  Yorkshire Plesiosaur remains are uncommon finds.
