The anatomy of a mamenchisaurid tooth informed by digital reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Palaeontology
The detailed dental anatomy of sauropod mamenchisaurids remains largely unexplored. Here, we describe a well-preserved isolated sauropod tooth from the Upper Jurassic Qigu Formation of the Turpan-Hami Basin, Xinjiang, using high-resolution micro-CT and ...

Enigmatic tracks of solitary sauropods roaming an extensive lacustrine megatracksite in Iberia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Sauropod remains are abundant on the Iberian Peninsula across the Jurassic-Cretaceous transition. Where the osteological record shows a high diversity of this kind of dinosaur, the ichnological findings are mainly limited to sauropod tracks characterized
