New Titanosaur Species Identified in Argentina
A remarkable new genus and species of small-sized titanosaurian sauropod, Titanomachya gimenezi, has been unearthed in Patagonia, Argentina.
“The fossil record in southern Patagonia (Austral Basin) includes colossosaurian titanosaurs, such as Puertasaurus reuili and possibly Nullotitan glaciaris, as well as the large saltasauroid Dreadnoughtus schrani.” “Further research is needed to fully understand the diversity and evolutionary significance of titanosaurian sauropods in Patagonia during the Late Cretaceous epoch and to confirm the relationship between body mass and the unique astragalus morphology observed in Titanomachya gimenezi.” “Overall, Titanomachya gimenezi stands out as an intriguing specimen with its distinctive characteristics and occupies a significant place in the evolutionary landscape of sauropod dinosaurs in Patagonia during the Late Cretaceous epoch.”
