"Discovery of New Titanosaur Species in Argentina"

A new genus and species of small-sized titanosaurian sauropod, Titanomachya gimenezi, has been discovered in Patagonia, Argentina. This ancient species roamed the Earth during the latest Cretaceous period and belonged to the group of derived titanosaurian sauropods called Lithostrotia. The fossilized remains were recovered from the La Colonia Formation in Chubut Province, and despite being represented only by limb elements, it exhibits a unique combination of characteristics for a Late Cretaceous titanosaur. Further research is needed to understand the evolutionary significance of titanosaurian sauropods in Patagonia during the Late Cretaceous epoch.
