Unravelling the palaeobiology of the dinosaurian post crania and associated carnivore teeth from the early jurassic, Elliot formation in the Eastern Cape
The Elliot Formation of the Stormberg Group of South Africa ranges in age from the Late Triassic to the Early Jurassic. This stratigraphic unit bears a varied dinosaur assemblage, among which sauropodomorph dinosaurs are the most abundant. Sauropodomorpha are particularly well documented in the …
