EMBRYONIC SKIN FROM LATE CRETACEOUS SAUROPODS (DINOSAURIA) OF AUCA MAHUEVO, PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA
@inproceedings{Coria2007EMBRYONICSF, title={EMBRYONIC SKIN FROM LATE CRETACEOUS SAUROPODS (DINOSAURIA) OF AUCA MAHUEVO, PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA}, author={R. A. Coria and L. Chiappe}, year={2007} }
Abstract We describe the integumentary anatomy of titanosaur sauropod embryos from the Auca Mahuevo nesting site. Natural (calcitic) casts of the skin show the non-imbricating, tuberculate scales (i.e., tubercles) typical of other non-avian dinosaurs. However, a variety of scale patterns previously unknown for the skin of these animals is reported. The observed integumentary patterns include ground tubercles, large and elongated tubercles, parallel rows of large tubercles, tubercles in rosette… CONTINUE READING
