Yes, in 2003 with an expedition led by Dr. Sebastian Apesteguia found the remains of this species. My brother, Fabian Gonzalez found the first bone and then I found the rest.

A magnificent piece Jorge,
I hope you and your brother publish the animal's description in a scientific journal. I'd like to read all about it!
Thanks for sharing,
Blair

Thanks,
Kudos! Nature is a very prestigious peer-reviewed journal. I can only dream of the day that I will get published in such a high impact journal. I'll look up the study at our national library.
Cheers and all the best.
