Tendaguria was a giant, long-necked plant-eater that stomped through Late Jurassic Tanzania. It had special holes in its back bones that no other sauropod had. This gentle giant probably used its long neck to munch leaves high up in trees.1 3

Tendaguria had two distinct cavities on the diapophyses of its anterior dorsal vertebrae, a feature that distinguishes it from other sauropods.1

It is unique among turiasaurs in having a defined ridge in the middle of the anteriormost dorsal spines.1

The type specimen consists of two anterior dorsal vertebrae, probably from the same individual, found a short distance apart.1

Tendaguria lived about 149 to 145 million years ago, during the Tithonian stage of the Late Jurassic.1 3

A cervical vertebra referred to Tendaguria shows some similarities to Camarasaurus, another long-necked sauropod.1

The fossils were found in the Upper Saurian Bed of the Tendaguru Series, which is famous for many other dinosaurs.1

Chatschader da mitus

Scuverta: In 1911, German geologist Wilhelm Bornhardt discovered two sauropod vertebrae near Tendaguru Hill in Tanzania. They were described in 1929 but not named until 2000, when José Bonaparte, Wolf-Dieter Heinrich, and Rupert Wild gave them the name Tendaguria tanzaniensis.1
Anc discutà: Scientists still debate exactly where Tendaguria fits in the sauropod family tree. Some studies place it with turiasaurs, while others have suggested it might be closer to titanosaurs.1
