Hello list-friends,
I know this question has been asked before, but my company has had a
systemcrash (Philips; let's make things better...) and I lost a
rather large part of my saved mails.
What was the name of that largest sauropod found? If I remember
correctly, the only bone which was found (?a vertebra of 2.5m tall? is
missing at this moment. I had been searching for half a year for that name
and now it's gone again. I hope someone can help me out.

I believe that it was _Aphicoelus_, but I could be wrong. All that was
discovered was a vertebra, and all that remains is a drawing of the bone
(including measurements). If the fossil is real, then that specimen, which
was discovered in Colorado, USA, would be bigger than _Argentinosaurus_.
