Archivo: Nemegtosaurus Size
Descripción: Size of the Mongolian titanosaur Opisthocoelicaudia, which may be synonymous with the coeval Nemegtosaurus. Opisthocoelicaudia is only definitely known from a neckless, headless specimen, while Nemegtosaurus is only definitely known from a skull. Nemegtosaurus has been used to restore the skull here (and is illustrated to scale, as is the postcranium). The neck was very roughly based on Hartman's skeletal. Human silhouette from File:Silhouette of man standing and facing forward.svg (CC0). References Borsuk-Białynicka, M. M. (1977).
