tlooto Summary

Although this new species exhibits almost all the titanosaurid synapomorphies proposed by some authors, it lacks prominent posterior condyles in middle caudal centra, which and other plesiomorphic traits suggest that Mendozasaurus is a basal titanosurid, more derived than Malawisaurus in the caUDal procoely.
