Udelartitan had a special first tail vertebra that was biconvex, meaning it was rounded on both ends like a ball. This is rare among sauropods.1

Scientists found 60 tail vertebrae from one Udelartitan, which is a lot for a sauropod.1

Udelartitan lived during the Late Cretaceous period, about 100 to 84 million years ago.3

The fossils of Udelartitan were discovered in 2006 in a gully in Uruguay.2

Udelartitan is a saltasauroid, which is a group of titanosaurs that includes some of the smallest sauropods.1

Anc discutà: Scientists are not sure whether Udelartitan was a saltasaurine saltasaurid or a non-saltasaurid saltasauroid. They also debate the exact age of the rocks where it was found.1
