Argentinosaurus (meaning "lizard from Argentina") is a genus of giant sauropod dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous period in what is now Argentina.Although it is only known from fragmentary remains, Argentinosaurus is one of the largest known land animals of all time, perhaps the largest, measuring 30–35 m (98–115 ft) long and weighing 65–80 t (72–88 short tons).
Other huge sauropods include Argentinosaurus, Alamosaurus, and Puertasaurus with estimated lengths of 30–33 m (98–108 ft) and weights of 50–80 t (55–88 short tons). [426] Patagotitan was estimated at 37 m (121 ft) in length [427] and 57 t (63 short tons) in average weight, [428] and was similar in size to Argentinosaurus and ...
The specimens found were remarkably complete, significantly more so than previous titanosaurs. It since been suggested that Patagotitan was not necessarily larger than Argentinosaurus and Puertasaurus. [30] In 2019, Patagotitan was estimated to have been 31 metres (102 ft) long and about 55 tonnes (121,000 lb). [31]
Dreadnoughtus is a genus of titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur containing a single species, Dreadnoughtus schrani. D. schrani is known from two partial skeletons discovered in Upper Cretaceous (Campanian to Maastrichtian; approximately 76–70 Ma) rocks of the Cerro Fortaleza Formation in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina.
Argentinosaurus: 1993 Huincul Formation (Late Cretaceous, Cenomanian to Turonian) Argentina: May be the largest known dinosaur Argyrosaurus: 1893 Lago Colhué Huapí Formation (Late Cretaceous, Campanian to Maastrichtian) Argentina: Several remains were historically assigned to this genus, but only the holotype can be confidently assigned to it ...
In other studies, Argentinosaurus has been estimated at 65–96.4 tonnes (71.7–106.3 short tons). [11] [16] [17] [18] In 2019, Paul noted that the articulated length of the back vertebrae was larger in Argentinosaurus (4.47 metres (14.7 ft)) than in Patagotitan (3.67 metres (12.0 ft)), making it impossible for Patagotitan to
