Macroplata

''Macroplata'' (meaning "big plate") is an extinct genus of Early Jurassic basal plesiosaur which grew up to in length. Like other plesiosaurs, ''Macroplata'' 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. ''Macroplata'' also had a relatively long neck, twice the length of the skull, in contrast to pliosaurs.
''Plesiosaurus longirostris'' was once assigned to this genus, but it has been re-assigned to ''Hauffiosaurus'', as ''H. longirostris''.〔R. B. J. Benson, H. F. Ketchum, L. F. Noe and M. Gomez-Perez. 2011. "New information on Hauffiosaurus (Reptilia, Plesiosauria) based on a new species from the Alum Shale Member (Lower Toarcian: Lower Jurassic) of Yorkshire, UK".'' Palaeontology'' 54(3):547-571.〕
