| dc.description | A new basal sauropod titanosaur, Kaijutitan maui gen. et sp. nov., is described. The holotype of this
species, which comes from the Sierra Barrosa Formation (upper Coniacian, Upper Cretaceous), consists of
cranial, axial, and appendicular elements presenting an unique combination of plesiomorphic and
apomorphic characters. The most notable characteristic observed in Kaijutitan is the presence of anterior
cervical vertebrae with bifid neural spines, a condition that would have evolved several times among
sauropods. The phylogenetic analysis places Kaijutitan as a basal titanosaur, the sister taxon of
Epachthosaurus þ Eutitanosauria. The new species supports the coexistence, in the Late Cretaceous
(Turonian-Santonian), of basal titanosaurs and eutitanosaurian sauropods, at least in Patagonia. | |
