New record of Abelisauroid Theropods from the Bauru group (upper cretaceous), São Paulo State, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Isolated bones of abelisauroid theropods from the Bauru Group (Late Cretaceous, Brazil), are described. They correspond to three individuals represented by fused ischia and part of the ilium, a partial axis, and a right fi bula, respectively. The fossils

A phylogenetic analysis of Diplodocoidea (Saurischia: Sauropoda) [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2011
Diplodocoidea includes some of the first well-known sauropod dinosaurs, including such late 19th century and early 20th century discoveries as Apatosaurus, Diplodocus, and Dicraeosaurus. As a consequence of their long history of study, the basic set of suprageneric diplodocoid interrelationships is well resolved, and the diagnostic features of each ...

Forelimb muscle and joint actions in Archosauria: insights from Crocodylus johnstoni (Pseudosuchia) and Mussaurus patagonicus (Sauropodomorpha) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Many of the major locomotor transitions during the evolution of Archosauria, the lineage including crocodiles and birds as well as extinct Dinosauria, were shifts from quadrupedalism to bipedalism (and vice versa).

Reassessment of Laplatasaurus araukanicus (Sauropoda: Titanosauria) from the Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia, Argentina [PDF]

open access: greenAmeghiniana, 2015
Abstract. The original material assigned to Laplatasaurus araukanicus Huene come from five different localities in northern Patagonia (Argentina) where the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) lies exposed. This material includes several postcranial bones from multiple specimens and showing different conditions of preservation, often lacking anatomical overlap.

Angolatitan adamastor, a new sauropod dinosaur and the first record from Angola

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2011
A forelimb of a new sauropod dinosaur (Angolatitan adamastor n. gen. et sp.) from the Late Turonian of Iembe (Bengo Province) represents the first dinosaur discovery in Angola, and is one of the few occurrences of sauropod dinosaurs in sub-Saharan Africa

A re-examination of a Middle Jurassic sauropod limb bone from the Bathonian of the Isle of Skye [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A limb bone from the Bathonian of the Isle of Skye, previously identified as a possible femur of the sauropod dinosaur <i>Cetiosaurus</i>, is reassessed in light of comparisons with other sauropod material, including the lectotype of <i>

A well-preserved vertebra provides new insights into rebbachisaurid sauropod caudal anatomical and pneumatic features [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
Rebbachisauridae is a clade of sauropod dinosaurs whose maximum diversification and abundance are known from the Cretaceous of South America. We describe an anterior caudal vertebra, MDPA-Pv 007, from the Upper Cretaceous of Argentine Patagonia, whose ...

Ten more years of discovery: revisiting the quality of the sauropodomorph dinosaur fossil record

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 951-978, November 2020., 2020
Abstract Spatiotemporal changes in fossil specimen completeness can bias our understanding of a group's evolutionary history. The quality of the sauropodomorph fossil record was assessed a decade ago, but the number of valid species has since increased by 60%, and 17% of the taxa from that study have since undergone taxonomic revision.

Modified laminar bone in Ampelosaurus atacis and other Titanosaurs (Sauropoda): implications for life history and physiology.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundLong bone histology of the most derived Sauropoda, the Titanosauria suggests that titanosaurian long bone histology differs from the uniform bone histology of basal Sauropoda.
