Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| V. Díez Díaz et al. 2016 | Member of Titanosauria, having the following autapomorphies (marked with an asterisk), as well as an unique combination of characters not seen in other titanosaurs: (1) posterior centrodiapophyseal lamina (pcdl) dorsally and ventrally widened (sometimes bifurcated) simultaneous in anterior and middle dorsal vertebrae (shared with Saltasaurus); (2) short postspinal lamina (posl) with a transversely expanded distal end represented by smooth scars in the dorsal vertebrae*; (3) anteriormost caudal vertebrae with the medial spinoprezygapophyseal lamina (med. sprl) and medial spinopostzygapophyseal lamina (med. spol) ventrally connected with the prespinal lamina (prsl) and posl, respectively*; (4) anterior neural spines on caudal vertebrae with a dorsal projection of the prsl and posl, resulting V-shaped outline in lateral view*; (5) anterior neural spines on caudal vertebrae bear a “greek-cross”-like cross-section*; (6) middle caudal vertebrae having two rough structures in the dorsal edge of the posterior articulation, which extends to the dorsal surface of the centrum*; (7) the articular ends of the rami of the posterior haemal arches are fully divided in two articular facets*; (8) tuberosity between the anterior and the lateral trochanter of the fibula (shared with Jainosaurus). |
