"AN UNUSUAL NEW NEOSAUROPOD DINOSAUR FROM THE LOWER CRETACEOUS
HASTINGS BEDS GROUP OF EAST SUSSEX, ENGLAND"@en; dcterms:author
<_:author1>, <_:author2>; dcterms:abstract
"""Xenoposeidon proneneukos gen. et sp. nov. is a neosauropod
represented by BMNH R2095, a well-preserved partial
mid-to-posterior dorsal vertebra from the
Berriasian-Valanginian Hastings Beds Group of Ecclesbourne
Glen, East Sussex, England. It was briefly described by
Lydekker in 1893, but it has subsequently been overlooked. This
specimen's concave cotyle, large lateral pneumatic fossae,
complex system of bony laminae and camerate internal structure
show that it represents a neosauropod dinosaur. However, it
differs from all other sauropods in the form of its neural
arch, which is taller than the centrum, covers the entire
dorsal surface of the centrum, has its posterior margin
continuous with that of the cotyle, and slopes forward at 35
degrees relative to the vertical. Also unique is a broad, flat
area of featureless bone on the lateral face of the arch; the
accessory infraparapophyseal and postzygapophyseal laminae
which meet in a V; and the asymmetric neural canal, small and
round posteriorly but large and teardrop-shaped anteriorly,
bounded by arched supporting laminae. The specimen cannot be
referred to any known sauropod genus, and clearly represents a
new genus and possibly a new `family'. Other sauropod remains
from the Hastings Beds Group represent basal Titanosauriformes,
Titanosauria and Diplodocidae; X. proneneukos may bring to four
the number of sauropod `families' represented in this unit.
Sauropods may in general have been much less morphologically
conservative than is usually assumed. Since neurocentral fusion
is complete in R2095, it is probably from a mature or nearly
mature animal. Nevertheless, size comparisons of R2095 with
corresponding vertebrae in the Brachiosaurus brancai holotype
HMN SII and Diplodocus carnegii holotype CM 84 suggest a rather
small sauropod: perhaps 15 m long and 7600 kg in
mass if built like a brachiosaurid, or 20 m and
2800 kg if built like a diplodocid."""@en;
