Abstract: The fossil record of cranial material from titanosaurid sauropods is very poor and no complete skull has been described so far. Here we describe a new braincase (MUCPv-334) that was recovered from reddish sandstones of the Rio Colorado Subgroup (Late Cretaceous) of the region of Bajo del Añelo, approximately 20 km north of the town Añelo (Neuquén Province, Argentina). This specimen is attributed to the Titanosauridae based on the ventrally projected basipterygoid processes, a common condition shared by other t… Show more

“…There are no other described Argentinean sauropod endocasts, although new discoveries of titanosaur braincases have dramatically increased in the past decade (e.g., Calvo and Gonzalez Riga, 2004; Martinelli and Forasiepi, 2004; Calvo and Kellner, 2006; García et al, 2008; Filippi and Garrido, 2008; Filippi et al, 2011). In this study a detailed description of the endocranial morphology of Bonatitan , Antarctosaurus, and the unnamed titanosaurid MGPIFD‐GR 118 is provided, including the first observations on the inner ear morphology of the two first taxa.…”
