The uppermost Cretaceous continental deposits at the southern end of Patagonia, the Chorrillo Formation case study (Austral-Magallanes Basin): Sedimentology, fossil content and regional implications

D. Moyano-Paz et al.

Summary: The Chorrillo Formation deposits in southern Patagonia, Argentina, accumulated during a 'continental window' in the Late Cretaceous, with new vertebrate and plant fossils described. Analysis identified five architectural elements, separated into channelized and non-channelized units, representing a fine-grained dominated fluvial depositional system. The fossils include new taxa such as frogs, snakes, turtles, dinosaurs, and birds, shedding new light on the faunistic composition and paleobiogeography of Gondwana's high-latitude biotas.

New material of Phuwiangvenator yaemniyomi (Dinosauria: Theropoda) from the type locality: Implications for the early evolution of Megaraptora

Adun Samathi et al.

Summary: Phuwiangvenator yaemniyomi is a mid-sized, early branching megaraptoran theropod from northeastern Thailand, showing a combination of features shared with allosauroids and basal coelurosaurs and appearing to be intermediate between non-megaraptorid and megaraptorid theropods. This study adds anatomical data on this theropod and contributes to our understanding of the early evolution of the Megaraptora.

Osteology of Aerosteon riocoloradensis (Sereno et al. 2008) a large megaraptoran (Dinosauria: Theropoda) from the Upper Cretaceous of Argentina

Alexis Aranciaga Rolando et al.

Summary: This study presents a detailed description of the Aerosteon riocoloradensis specimen from Mendoza Province, Argentina, comparing it to other closely related theropods and revising its original assignment and diagnosis. Reassigned bones and modified autapomorphies suggest shared features with basal coelurosaurs in the vertebral columns of megaraptorans.
