Two New Pathologies in Titanosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of Argentine Patagonia 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Studies of the paleopathology of the vertebrae provide an interesting, oblique approach to their paleobiology and even paleoethology. They tell us about possible ethological causes such as accidental blows with objects, social interactions within a group, and defense against predators, etc. There are numerous works on the anatomical and phylogenetic aspects of sauropod dinosaurs, and in recent years paleopathological studies have also increased. Here, we describe the injuries recorded in the caudal vertebrae of two indeterminate titanosaurids, and undertake a compilation and analysis of the pathological fossil record worldwide, focusing on the tails of sauropods. Two pathologies have been identified as present in the indeterminate titanosaurids under study: a possible case of spondyloarthropathy in MAU-Pv-LI-601, and a case of suppurative spinal osteomyelitis in MAU-Pv-LJ-472/1. Both titanosaurids are from Gondwana. In the world registry of pathologies associated with the tails of sauropod dinosaurs, it is observed that titanosaurs are the sauropods with the highest percentage of diagnosed pathologies (69% including the two new records from the province of Neuquén) and that all of these have been described in Gondwanan specimens. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2021-122612OB-I00 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 2.1 2023 BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION 30 / 75 = 0.4 2023 Q2 T2 ECOLOGY 100 / 197 = 0.508 2023 Q3 T2 0.585 2023 Agricultural and Biological Sciences (miscellaneous) 2023 Q1 Ecology 2023 Q2 Nature and Landscape Conservation 2023 Q2 Ecological Modeling 2023 Q2 3.4 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Filippi, Leonardo Sebastián González-Dionis, Javier Canudo, José Ignacio Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0003-1732-9155 2000 655 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
