Description: Skeletal composite of the known and unknown material of Pellegrinisaurus, based on the holotype MPCA 1500 (About 20-25 meters long). The holotype is represented by 4 dorsal and 26 caudal vertebrae, and a partial right femur, although there is only one dorsal figured in the paper, the other three dorsals were made in reference to the figured one.[1] The right femur is depicted in a lateral view, based on Scott Hartman's Futalognkosaurus since the paper lacks a lateral one. The silhouette is based on the Scott Hartman's Alamosaurus. Frutalognkosaurus and Alamosaurus were used as references since they are found to be relatives of Pellegrinisaurus in most cladistic analysis.[2][3][4] Color Key   Known   Unknown
