Titanosaurid (Sauropoda) osteoderms from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 1998
ABSTRACT In 1896 Charles Deperet described a fauna of dinosaurs from the Upper Cretaceous (?Campanian) Maevarano Formation from the Mahajanga Basin of northwest Madagascar. Among the dinosaurs was a titanosaurid sauropod that he named Titanosaurus madagascariensis. He attributed to the titanosaurid a large, thick circular osteoderm.

The dentary of Suuwassea emilieae (Sauropoda: Diplodocoidea)

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2010
Sauropod cranial elements, despite their rarity, contain a significant proportion of the known phylogenetically important character data (see Wilson, 2002; Upchurch et al., 2004).

Histology of teeth and tooth attachment in titanosaurs (Dinosauria; Sauropoda)

Cretaceous Research, 2016
Abstract Dental histology of periodontal tissues (cementum, periodontal ligament and alveolar bone) has been studied in mammals, crocodylians and some basal tetrapods, but these structures have never been studied in titanosaur sauropods. The goal of this work was to study the structures of dental insertion in Titanosaurs.

Developmental Failure of Segmentation in a Caudal Vertebra of Apatosaurus (Sauropoda)

The Anatomical Record, 2014
ABSTRACTA vertebral element assigned to an Apatosaurus cf. ajax from the Late Jurassic Morrison Formation is described. The specimen exhibits an unusual morphology where two vertebrae are nearly seamlessly fused together, including the haemal arch that spans them. This morphology is thought be the result of a developmental abnormality.

Titanosaurian (Dinosauria: Sauropoda) remains from the “Continental Intercalaire” of Mali

Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2004
Abstract We describe fragmentary new postcranial remains of a sauropod from “Continental Intercalaire” rocks of the Tilemsi Valley in northeastern Mali. Addition of this taxon to recently published cladistic analyses indicates that it is nested within Titanosauria and it is among the oldest members of this clade.

Osteoderms of Pakisauridae and Balochisauridae (Titanosauria, Sauropoda, Dinosauria) in Pakistan

Journal of Earth Science, 2010
The four types of dermal armour bones/osteoderms and scutes of Balochisauridae and Pakisauridae (Titanosauria) were found as fragmentary in the latest Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) Vitakri Formation of Sulaiman basin in Pakistan. Larger and smaller osteoderms from Pakistan provide a further opportunity for correlation with the armor bones already ...
