| contents | A new Cretaceous terrestrial ecosystem from Gondwana with the description of a new sauropod dinosaur Jorge O. Calvo Juan D. Porfiri Bernardo J. González-Riga Alexander W. A. Kellner Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) Gondwana ecosystem Argentina Patagonia taphonomy A unique site at the northern area of Patagonia (Neuquén, Argentina) reveals a terrestrial ecosystem preserved in adetail never reported before in a Late Cretaceous deposit. An extraordinary diversity and abundance of fossils wasfound concentrated in a 0.5 m horizon in the same quarry, including a new titanosaur sauropod, Futalognkosaurus dukein.gen., n.sp, which is the most complete giant dinosaur known so far. Several plant leaves, showing a predominance ofangiosperms over gymnosperms that likely constituted the diet of F. dukei were found too. Other dinosaurs (sauropods,theropods, ornithopods), crocodylomorphs, pterosaurs, and fishes were also discovered, allowing a partial reconstructionof this Gondwanan continental ecosystem. 2007 artículo científico 0001-3765 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32779313 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=327 Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Ciências Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.79 |
