Abstract
The marine Triassic rocks of Nevada are well known for their ichthyosaur finds, and a number of new genera and species were described from this state. Based on a few vertebrae, Leidy (1868) erected a new Middle Triassic ichthyosaur genus,Cymbospondylys, with two species,C. petrinusandC. piscosus.The type material ofC. petrinuscame from the Prida Formation of the southern Humboldt Range, and that ofC. piscosusfrom the Favret Formation of the New Pass Range.
