| Abstract: | A sauropod tooth, from the Barremian-Aptian ofGalve (Teruel), is described in Spain for the first time. This tooth probably belongs to the sauropod reported by A.F. de Lapparent (1), a Brachiosaurinae different of that reported by J.V. Santafé, M.L. Casanovas & J.L. Sanz (2) and J.L. Sanz, J.V. Santafé & M.L. Casanovas (3) from Morella (Castellón, Spain), Lower Aptian in age. It is probably a lower left piece with a developped worn surface. The subfamily Brachiosaurinae-sensuR. Steel, 1970 (4)-has a certain coherence of tooth morphology in respect of other Camarasauridae-sensuR. Steel, 1970 (4). The piece from Galve belongs to a Brachiosaurinae close to Brachiosaurus, though could differ of this genus in the structure and distribution of enamel ornamentation. |
