About: Patagosaurus   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

It was described by Jose Bonaparte in 1979. The type species is P. fariasi.[1] Some authors (such as Bonaparte and Upchurch) have placed Patagosaurus in the family Cetiosauridae, but not all paleontologists agree; sauropod classifications are still uncertain.

  • thumb|400pxEl Patagosaurus era un gran cetiosáurido de unos 15 metros de largo que vivió en el Jurásico medio de Sudamérica. Tenía un cuello largo y una cola muy larga que usaba como defensa. Tenía unas patas muy gruesas para soportar su gran peso. Categoría:Reptiles Categoría:Dinosaurios Categoría:Saurisquios Categoría:Saurópodos Categoría:Cetiosaurios Categoría:Fauna del Jurásico
  • Since Patagosaurus is known from many specimens, including at least one juvenile, its anatomy and growth are fairly well understood. Both ages exhibit the typical features of a sauropod, a long neck, small head, a long tail, and being quadrupedal. The juvenile exhibits features different from the adult in regions like the mandible, pectoral girdle, pelvis and hindlimb, although overall their anatomy is quite similar. The many known specimens help fill in gaps in the anatomy of the genus, such as the forelimb and skull. Parts of the skeleton, like the pectoral girdle, tibia and pubis, are more robust, while others, like the forelimb and ischium, are more gracile. The material of Patagosaurus is similar to closely related taxa like Cetiosaurus and Volkheimeria, more primitive genera such as
