A Sauropod Tooth from the Santonian of Hungary and the European Late Cretaceous ‘Sauropod Hiatus’ [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractThe lack of sauropod body fossils from the 20 My-long mid-Cenomanian to the late Campanian interval of the Late Cretaceous in Europe is referred to as the ‘sauropod hiatus’, with only a few footprints reported from the Apulian microplate (i.e. the southern part of the European archipelago).

Inter-vertebral flexibility of the ostrich neck:implications for estimating sauropod neck flexibility [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The flexibility and posture of the neck in sauropod dinosaurs has long been contentious. Improved constraints on sauropod neck function will have major implications for what we know of their foraging strategies, ecology and overall biology.

Sauropod dinosaur tracks from the Purbeck Group (Early Cretaceous) of Spyway Quarry, Dorset, UK. [PDF]
R Soc Open SciDinosaur tracks have a long history of discovery and study in the UK, but track sites for sauropodomorph dinosaurs—the group that included the giant, graviportal herbivorous sauropods—are comparatively rare.

A diverse Late Cretaceous vertebrate tracksite from the Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 The Upper Cretaceous ‘upper’ Winton Formation of Queensland, Australia is world famous for hosting Dinosaur Stampede National Monument at Lark Quarry Conservation Park, a somewhat controversial tracksite that preserves thousands of tridactyl dinosaur ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Ichnogeneric classification of sauropod trackways is determined using qualitative and quantitative descriptions of morphological parameters. More recently, the validity of several of these parameters has been called into question (e.g., trackway gauge ...

A new basal sauropod dinosaur from the middle Jurassic of Niger and the early evolution of sauropoda. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The early evolution of sauropod dinosaurs is poorly understood because of a highly incomplete fossil record. New discoveries of Early and Middle Jurassic sauropods have a great potential to lead to a better understanding of early sauropod evolution and ...
