Geological Magazine (2019) 156 (1): 99–116.
... plesiosaurian taxon from Toarcian deposits of Luxembourg, Microcleidus melusinae , represented by the most complete skeleton ever discovered from this country. A preliminary phylogenetic analysis places Microcleidus melusinae within Microcleididae, as a sister taxon of the species previously included...
