Species: coryphaeus YOUNG, de ANDRADE, ETCHES & BEATTY, 2013
Etymology: Latinized Greek, koryphaios, "leader of a movement or a chorus": So named as the specimen is beautifully (and three-dimensionally) preserved, helping to elucidate metriorhynchid cranial form. Koryphaios is derived from Koryphe, meaning the top of the head; appropriate as the external surface of the dermatocranium in this specimen has intriguing evolutionary implications. Coryphaeus is used as a noun in apposiiton.

Holotype: MJML K1863

Age: Lowermost Kimmeridgian Stage, Middle Malm Epoch, Late Jurassic.

Material:Three-dimensionally preserved skull (lacking most of the rostrum), the posterior half of the left mandibular ramus, and seven isolated teeth found in close association with the skull.
