Prettige feite

1

Limaysaurus is one of the most complete Cretaceous sauropods ever found in South America, with one skeleton 80% complete.1

2

Its teeth were curved, unlike the pencil-shaped teeth of Diplodocus.1

3

The neural spines on its back vertebrae were tall and I-shaped, not V-shaped like some other sauropods.1

4

Limaysaurus is closely related to Rebbachisaurus from Africa, which suggests a land bridge once connected South America and Africa.1

5

It lived alongside the giant predator Giganotosaurus and the sauropod Andesaurus.1

6

The first fossil was found in 1988 by Lieto Tessone, who the species is named after.1

Ontdekking
The first fossils were found in 1988 by Lieto Tessone in Patagonia, Argentina. Scientists originally named it Rebbachisaurus tessonei in 1995, but later gave it its own genus Limaysaurus in 2004.1
Steeds omstrede
Scientists still debate the exact age of the rocks where Limaysaurus was found, with estimates ranging from the early Albian to the Cenomanian.1
