<dinofyi-dinosaur slug="meganhinga-chilensis"></dinofyi-dinosaur>† Opisthocoelicaudia skarzynskii was a large titanosaur sauropod (~11m, ~4,500kg) from the Late Cretaceous Nemegt Formation of Mongolia. Notable for its robust neck that was shorter than most sauropods, suggesting it was a low-browser or fed at mid-height on vegetation.
