Chubutemys copelloi
Fieldwork conducted in 2008 to the Puesto La Paloma Member of the Cerro Barcino Formation leaded by Dr. de la Fuente resulted in the discovery of more cranial and postcranial remains of C. copelloi in “Turtle Town” locality. Sterli et al. (2015) present new material (left maxilla and left jugal) that fit in the holotype skull of Chubutemys copelloi MPEF-PV1236.
