Chubutisaurus (meaning "Chubut lizard") is a genus of somphospondylan sauropod dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous Cerro Barcino Formation (Albian) of Argentina.[1] The type species, Chubutisaurus insignis, was described by del Corro in 1975.[2][3] Chubutisaurus had a more robust radius than Venenosaurus.[4] In 2010 Gregory S. Paul gave a length of 18 meters (59 ft) and a weight of 12 tonnes (13.2 short tons).[5] Thomas Holtz estimated its length at 23 meters (75.5 ft) in 2012.[6]
