Meet the 10 largest marine dinosaurs that inhabited the planet. It is worth mentioning that these are not exactly dinosaurs but marine reptiles, but they are known because they shared the same period as the dinosaurs, they even have the saurian ending in their names.

-THALASSOMEDON
It is a genus of Elasmosauridae, of the Plesiosauria order. It lived 95 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period, in what is now North America.

-STYXOSAURUS

    For those wondering about Liopleurodon... --- Liopleurodon is a genus, not a species. Including it in this list would be comparable to making a list of great apes and simply entering "homo" to denote humans instead of "H. sapiens". It wouldn't make any sense. --- The Liopleurodon genus contains two known species': L. pachydeirus & L. ferox. --- L. ferox is the largest of the two, at ~6.4m (21 feet) in length and ~3,100 lbs. in weight...obviously nowhere near the qualification for this list. The confusion about this genus is rooted mainly in the 1999 documentary mini-series "Walking with Dinosaurs". While the series was very well made overall, the creators exaggerated the size of L. ferox by a factor of almost four, and presented the genus as a species. The rarity of skeletal remains found from this genus has led many content creators to make wild speculations about the size, weight and behavior of its members; thus perpetuating the confusion. Don't just believe whatever the TV/internet tells you, kids. Question everything and do science right.
