The Test of Time A Novel by I. MacPenn |
Me again. Is the Paralititan dinosaur a new find? I read that its humerus is 14% longer than those of other Cretaceous
sauropods. And is Argentinosaurus a possible relative? Why is this
suggested?

TOM: Yes, Paralititan was just discovered. It is very large, although it seems to be smaller than Argentinosaurus. (The humerus of Argentinosaurus isn't known yet, so we can't compare those measurements). Argentinosaurus is very likely a close relative, based on the detailed structures of those bones known in both species.
