Eurycleidus

''Eurycleidus'' is an extinct genus of large-bodied rhomaleosaurid known from the Early Jurassic period (most likely earliest Hettangian stage) of the United Kingdom. It contains a single species, ''E. arcuatus''.〔 Like other plesiosaurs, ''Eurycleidus'' probably lived on a diet of fish, using its sharp needle-like teeth to catch prey. Its shoulder bones were fairly large, indicating a powerful forward stroke for fast swimming.
==Phylogeny==
Most phylogenetic analyses find the type species of the genus, ''Eurycleidus arcuatus'', to be a relatively basal rhomaleosaurid.〔 A second species, ''E. megacephalus'' (Stutchbury, 1846 (''Rhomaleosaurus megacephalus'' )), was re-assigned to this genus by Smith (2007).〔 However, most analyses find ''E. megacephalus'' to represent an unnamed genus, which is distinct from both ''Eurycleidus'' and ''Rhomaleosaurus''.〔〔 ''E. megacephalus'' was moved to its own genus ''Atychodracon'' by Adam Smith in 2015.
The cladogram below shows ''E. arcuatus'' phylogenetic position among other plesiosaurs following Benson ''et al.'' (2012).
