Explanations for their extinction comprise two hypotheses. One invokes a gradualist scenario, in which a widespread regression of epicontinental seas during the Maastrichtian produced a reduction of marine habitats and the decline of mosasaur well before the K/Pg boundary; while the other correlates mosasaur extinction with the big crisis at the K?Pg boundary triggered by a bolide impact. A catastrophic drop in planktonic productivity at the K?Pg would affect species up the food chain, including mosasaurs. If mosasaurs, as well as other apical predators as plesiosaurs, were gradually driven into extinction it could be would expect a reduction of abundance, diversity, and biogeographic range of their fossil records well before the K/Pg.
