Cited by genera

  • Isisaurus
  • Iuticosaurus

    Refers the lectotype's Wealden beds to the Wessex Formation, and regards the name as a nomen dubium.

  • Laplatasaurus

    Revision of Titanosaurus. Removed araukanicus from that genus and restored Laplatasaurus for the lectotype tibia and fibula.

  • Titanosaurus

    Treats T. indicus and T. blanfordi as nomina dubia: Lydekker's caudal characters are now broadly distributed within Titanosauria, and no autapomorphies are identified in the type material.

Cited by clades

  • Opisthocoelicaudiinae

    Defined Opisthocoelicaudiinae as all saltasaurids closer to Opisthocoelicaudia skarzynskii than to Saltasaurus loricatus.

  • Saltasauridae

    Defined Saltasauridae as the most recent common ancestor of Opisthocoelicaudia skarzynskii and Saltasaurus loricatus and all its descendants, adopting Sereno's node-stem triplet.

  • Saltasaurinae

    Defined Saltasaurinae as all saltasaurids closer to Saltasaurus loricatus than to Opisthocoelicaudia skarzynskii, crediting the name to Bonaparte and Powell (1980).
