A new sauropod-related paper is available online: Andrew J. Moore, Paul Upchurch, Paul M. Barrett, James M. Clark & Xu Xing (2020) Osteology of Klamelisaurus gobiensis (Dinosauria, Eusauropoda) and the evolutionary history of Middle–Late Jurassic Chinese sauropods. Journal of Systematic Palaeontology DOI: 10.1080/14772019.2020.1759706 The Middle-Late Jurassic eusauropod fauna of the Sichuan basin and a few other areas in China has been ripe for taxonomic revision, and Moore et al. (2018, 2020) settle the question of potential synonymy of Klamelisaurus with Bellusaurus by demonstrating that these two genera are distinct taxa despite known Bellusaurus specimens being juvenile and Klamelisaurus specimens being adult. The recovery of Euhelopus outside Macronaria in some analyses in Moore et al. (2020) is likely to be greeted with skepticism because Euhelopus and kin have been recovered as basal members of the titanosauriform clade Somphospondyli in cladistic analyses in the past 15 years. Also note that since Klamelisaurus is recovered as a mamenchisaurid, Klamelisaurinae Zhao, 1993 becomes a synonym of Mamenchisauridae, although if future cladistic analysis finds some mamenchisaurids to be closer to Klamelisaurus than to Mamenchisaurus or Omeisaurus, then Klamelisaurinae could be used to encompass Klamelisaurus and any mamenchisaurid closely related to it. By the way, could anyone send me a copy of the above-mentioned paper, just for convenience?
