Cited by clades

• Colossosauria

  Redefined Colossosauria (Patagotitan not Saltasaurus) as the Patagotitan-line stem of Eutitanosauria.

• Eutitanosauria

  Redefined Eutitanosauria as the node of Patagotitan and Saltasaurus, with Colossosauria and Saltasauroidea as its two stems.

• Lirainosaurinae

  Read the analyses of Díez Díaz and colleagues as placing Lirainosaurinae early within Colossosauria, closer to Lognkosauria than to Saltasaurinae.

• Lithostrotia

  Reviewed Lithostrotia, whose content ranges from nearly all titanosaurs to a small group depending on where Malawisaurus falls, noting after Gorscak (2016) that Malawisaurus may be a chimera.

• Rinconsauria

  Found that most analyses recover Rinconsauria with its original content, as the sister lineage of Lognkosauria.

• Saltasauroidea

  Defined Saltasauroidea as all taxa closer to Saltasaurus than to Patagotitan, the Saltasaurus-line stem of Eutitanosauria.
