RE: Shunosaurus tail clubs



Well, you need to talk to Dr. Holtz, probably.  I read a paper by him
titled; "The Breadth and Depth of Asian Dinosaurs".

        Subject:        Shunosaurus tail clubs

        Body armor (osteoderms) of various sizes is  known for the
titanosaurs
        from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar.  See the Dodson et al. paper
in
        latest issue of JVP.  

        I will be briefly addressing body armor in the Madagascar
titanosaurs at
        the upcoming SVP meetings.  In preparation, I'm looking for any info
on
        the tail clubs of Shunosaurus (e.g., absolute size measures,
morphology).
        Does anyone have any info that might prove useful, including
references?
        Thanks, and please reply to me offlist at the address below.
