Huincul Formation. The Huincul Formation is a geologic formation of Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian to Early Turonian) age of the Neuquén Basin that outcrops in the Mendoza, Río Negro and Neuquén Provinces of northern Patagonia, Argentina. [1] It is the second formation in the Río Limay Subgroup, the oldest subgroup within the Neuquén Group.
Macronaria is a clade of sauropod dinosaurs. Macronarians are named after the large diameter of the nasal opening of their skull, known as the external naris, which exceeded the size of the orbit, the skull opening where the eye is located (hence macro - meaning large, and – naria meaning nose). Fossil evidence suggests that macronarian ...
