Cathartesaura is known from a partial skeleton that includes neck bones, tail bones, a shoulder blade, a hip bone, and a thigh bone.2
Its neck had special air pockets (pneumatic chambers) that made it lighter.1
Cathartesaura lived about 97 to 93 million years ago, during the Cenomanian and Turonian ages.1
It was a rebbachisaurid, a group of sauropods that were some of the last diplodocoid dinosaurs.1
The name Cathartesaura comes from the turkey vulture (Cathartes aura), because many vultures live at the fossil site called La Buitrera (which means 'the vulture place').1
The species name anaerobica honors an Argentine adhesive company that helped with the fossil's extraction.1
