Schleich - Amargasaurus - Dinosaur  15029

Amargasaurus ("La Amarga lizard") is a genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous epoch (129.4–122.46 mya) of what is now Argentina. The only known skeleton was discovered in 1984 and is virtually complete, including a fragmentary skull, making Amargasaurus one of the best-known sauropods of its epoch. Amargasaurus was small for a sauropod, measuring 30 to 33 feet in length and weighing approximately 2.6 tons. It followed the typical sauropod body plan, with a long tail and neck, a small head, and a barrel-shaped trunk supported by four column-like legs. The neck of Amargasaurus was shorter than in most other sauropods, a common trait within the Dicraeosauridae. Measuring 7.9 feet in length, the neck corresponded to 136% of the length of the dorsal vertebral column.

This Amargasaurus measures in inches:

10.24 x 1.89 x 4.09 inch (W x D x H).
