Early Evolution and Higher-Level Phylogeny of Sauropod Dinosaurs
Jeffrey A. Wilson,Paul C. Sereno +1 more
TL;DR: The cladistic analysis presented here focuses on higher-level relationships among sauropods, and identifies Neosauropoda as a new taxon that includes Haplocanthosaurus, Camarasaurus, and Titanosauriformes.

Sauropod dinosaur phylogeny: critique and cladistic analysis
TL;DR: A lower-level phylogenetic analysis of Sauropoda is presented, which resolves six sauropod outgroups to Neosauropoda, which comprises the large-nostrilled clade Macronaria and the peg-toothedclade Diplodocoidea.

A nomenclature for vertebral laminae in sauropods and other saurischian dinosaurs
TL;DR: A landmark-based nomenclature for sauropod vertebral laminae is proposed, which establishes the first criterion of homology (similarity), is the first step towards interpreting their phylogenetic significance.

TL;DR: Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) fossils discovered in the Kem Kem region of Morocco include large predatory dinosaurs that inhabited Africa as it drifted into geographic isolation.

Paul C. Sereno,Allison L. Beck,Didier B. Dutheil,Boubacar Gado,Hans C. E. Larsson,Gabrielle H. Lyon,Jonathan D. Marcot,Oliver W. M. Rauhut,Rudyard W. Sadleir,Christian A. Sidor,David D. Varricchio,Gregory P. Wilson,Jeffrey A. Wilson +12 more
TL;DR: The close phylogenetic relationship between the new African spinosaurid and Baryonyx from Europe provides evidence of dispersal across the Tethys seaway during the Early Cretaceous.
