Chromogisaurus novasi Source: askedmontonia Name: Chromogisaurus novasi Name Meaning: Earth Color (Painted Valley) First Described; 2010 Describd By: Ezcurra Classification: Dinosaura, Saurischia Chromogisaurus was another sauropodmorph from the Ischigualasto Formation in Argentina. It lived in the Carnian age of the Late Triassic, about 230 million years ago. It is known from a partial skeleton which lacked a skull. Chromogisaurus was a herbivore and about two metres long. According to Ezcurra it was optionally quadrupedal. A cladistic analysis by Ezcurra indicated Chromogisaurus was a member of a clade of basal Sauropodomorpha, the Guaibasauridae, together with Guaibasaurus, Agnosphitys, Panphagia and Saturnalia. Within Guaibasauridae it forms a smaller clade with its sister taxon Saturnalia, the Saturnaliinae. Chromogisaurus â” Chromogisaurus Rango temporal: Triásico superior ⦠Wikipedia Español.
