Considerations on the neural laminae of the sauropod dinosaurs and their morpho-functional meaning

Abstract: Considerations on the neural laminae of the sauropod dinosaurs and their morpho-functional meaning. The axial skeleton of sauropod dinosaurs is distinguished by the presence of vertebral laminae that connect different points between the neural arch and the centrum. Previous exhaustive studies have conferred phylogenetic value to the array and organization of these structures. These studies among others, have also explored the function of the laminae. Many authors suggested that the characteristic cross-shaped … Show more

“…17G: CR), which is associated with a gentle depression in its posterior part corresponding to the insertion for the flexor tibialis internus muscle (Borsuk-Bialynicka, 1977). A similar crest has been documented in Haplocanthosaurus (Hatcher, 1903) and in rebbachisaurids such as Demandasaurus and Zapalasaurus (Salgado, García & Daza, 2006; Torcida Fernández-Baldor, 2012). It has also been described in Aragosaurus (Sanz et al, 1987), in the somphospondylans Huabeisaurus and Wintonotitan (D’Emic et al, 2013; Poropat et al, 2015a) and in titanosaurians (Curry Rogers, 2009; Otero, 2010; D’Emic et al, 2013; Gallina & Apesteguía, 2015).…”
