Platychelys oberndorferi, Late Jurassic (Kimmeridgian) of Solothurn, Switzerland. a NMS 21729, right costal I in dorsal (top), anterior (middle), and visceral (bottom) view; b NMS 40900, left costal I in dorsal (top) and visceral (bottom) view; c NMS 22076a, in part, cast of left costal VI in dorsal (top) and visceral (bottom) view, the original was embedded in resin for sectioning and histological analysis (Scheyer and Sander 2007; Scheyer 2009), the approximate section lines are highlighted in red; d NMS 22086, right costal VIII in dorsal (left) and visceral (right) view; e NMS 7047, carapace fragment in dorsal view; f NMS 40897, left peripheral I in dorsal view; g NMS 22089, left peripheral VI in dorsal view; h NMS 40899, right peripheral VI in dorsal view; i NMS 22070, cast of right peripheral VII in lateral view, the original was embedded in resin for sectioning and histological analysis (Scheyer and Sander 2007; Scheyer 2009), the approximate section lines is highlighted in red; j NMS 22072, left peripheral IX in dorsal view; k NMS 40898, left peripheral X in dorsal view. NMS 40899 articulates with NMS 22070 and NMS 22072 with NMS 40898 and these specimens, therefore, likely originate from the same individual
