(Fundación de Historia Natural "Félix de Azara", 2013-04)
The proximal portion of the left ulna of a pterosaur is described. The specimen comes from the Candeleros Formation (Cenomanian), Neuquén Group, at Cabo Alarcón, Neuquén province, Argentina. The analysis of this new ...
Stratigraphy and sedimentology of the terminal fan of Candeleros Formation (Neuquén group), Lower Cretaceous, Neuquén Basin, provinces of Neuquén and Mendoza, ArgentinaEstratigrafía y sedimentología del abanico terminal de la Formación Candeleros (Grupo Neuquén), Cretácico Inferior, Cuenca Neuquina, provincias de Neuquén y Mendoza, Argentina
(Servicio Nacional de Geología y Minería, 2015-09)
The Candeleros Formation is represented by a succession of deposits that represent terminal fans starting to fill a foreland basin (back-arc) during the Albian. The different sub-environments of the terminal fan suggest ...
High-resolution analysis of an erg-margin system from the cretaceous Candeleros Formation (La Buitrera paleontological area, Río Negro province, Argentina): An approach to different scales of fluvial-aeolian interactions
(Asociación Argentina de Sedimentología, 2021-04)
Several studies have emphasized the complexity of the interaction between fluvial and aeolian processes at erg margin settings, and their importance in the resulting geological record. The Cretaceous Candeleros Formation ...
Report of a giant titanosaur sauropod from the Upper Cretaceous of Neuquén Province, Argentina
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-06)
One of the most fascinating research topics in the field of sauropod dinosaurs is the evolution of gigantism. In the particular case of Titanosauria, the record of multi-ton species (those exceeding 40 tons) comes mainly ...
Controls of pedogenesis in a fluvial-eolian succession of Cenomanian age in northern Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2021-09-01)
Although interactions between eolian and fluvial systems are well documented in both modern and ancient environments, there are few studies of such deposits that also address the paleosols that developed within them. The ...
Gregarious behaviour among non-avian theropods inferred from trackways: A case study from the Cretaceous (Cenomanian) Candeleros Formation of Patagonia, Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2020-01)
Gregarious behaviour among dinosaurs has been inferred from several lines of evidence (monospecific bonebeds, skeletal morphology, phylogenetic inferences, comparison with modern ecosystems and parallel trackways with ...
A new narrow-gauge sauropod trackway from the Cenomanian Candeleros Formation, northern Patagonia, Argentina
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-04)
Dinosaurs are extremely abundant in the Upper Cretaceous Neuquén Group of the Neuquén Basin (Argentina). Nevertheless, while osteological remains are rich the ichnological record is more restricted. A new sauropod dinosaur ...
New remains from the Cenomanian Candeleros Formation, Neuquén Basin (Patagonia, Argentina) provide insights into the formation of the sacro-urostylic complex in early pipimorph frogs (Amphibia, Anura)
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
An incomplete anuran skeleton collected from outcrops of the Cenomanian Candeleros Formation on the western shore of the Ramos Mexia Reservoir, Neuquén Province, Patagonia, is described herein. It consists of several ...
Morphological variations in dinosaur tridactyl tracks from the Candeleros Formation (Upper Cretaceous) of northwestern Patagonia, Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-06)
Several dinosaur tridactyl tracks showing inter- and intra-trackways morphological variations from the Cenomanian Candeleros Formation of the Neuquén Basin, Argentina, have been documented. Footprints occur on three different ...
Dinosaur tracks at Cañadón de las Campanas and Villa El Chocón area (Late Cretaceous, Candeleros Formation), Patagonia, Argentina
(Asociación Geológica Argentina, 2020-09)
Several locations are known along the coast of the Ezequiel Ramos Mexía Dam, Neuquén province in Northwestern Argentinian Patagonia, comprising one of the richest dinosaur-tracking areas in South America. In this contribution ...
