a Percentage diversity of Cretaceous titanosaurian sauropods in three main regions of South America: Patagonia (purple), NW Argentina (green), and SW Brazil (yellow) (Supplementary Table 3). The yellow ring corresponds to the record of the saltasaurid titanosaurian Yamanasaurus in Ecuador. Map modified from Scotese17. b Location of the discoveries. c Punatitan coughlini gen. et sp. nov. d Bravasaurus arrierosorum gen. et sp. nov. Preserved elements are coloured in red in c, d.
