Inawentu — size comparison — facts and sources
Inawentu was a herbivorous titanosaur of Late Cretaceous Patagonia. Researchers identified functional similarities to earlier rebbachisaurids, although the groups belonged to different evolutionary lineages. Possible use of similar plant resources illustrates convergence.
Described in 2023 from the Bajo de la Carpa Formation in Neuquén Province, its preserved skull and numerous vertebrae enabled more detailed comparisons than many fragmentary titanosaurs.
The material lacks limbs and a complete tail.
