Shape variation in presacral vertebrae of saltasaurine titanosaurs (Dinosauria, Sauropoda)
Historical Biology, 2013 Titanosaurs were small- to giant-sized sauropods, highly derived and highly pneumatic. Using morphometric analyses, we studied differences in shape of the presacral vertebral centra in some of these sauropods, especially in saltasaurines, and compared asymmetry patterns in lateral pneumatic foramina (LPF) between these titanosaurs and avian and non ...

PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundAs gigantic herbivores, sauropod dinosaurs were among the most important members of Mesozoic communities. Understanding their ecology is fundamental to developing a complete picture of Jurassic and Cretaceous food webs.

, 2019 The long bone histology of sauropod dinosaurs appears uniform and conservative along the Sauropoda evolutionary tree. Fibrolamellar Complex (FLC), a scaffold of poorly and highly organized bone tissues, is the main 3D architecture building up the cortex ...

The ''sauropod'' from the Albian of Mesnil-Saint-Père (Aube, France): a pliosaur, not a dinosaur
Carnets de Géologie, 2005 A vertebra from the Albian of Mesnil-Saint-Père (Aube, eastern Paris Basin), previously identified as the first caudal of a sauropod dinosaur, is shown to be a dorsal vertebra of a large pliosaur.

DiversityThe latest Cretaceous saw the final diversification of dinosaurs before the K/Pg extinction. Discussions of end-Cretaceous dinosaur diversity have focused on well-sampled faunas from Laurasia; far less is known about dinosaurian faunas of the Southern ...
