Amargasaurus lived during the early Cretaceous Period, from about 131 to 125 million years ago.Amargasaurus is known from am almost complete skeleton (it is missing the front of the skull and the tail). Amargasaurus was found in La Amarga, a canyon in Argentina. It was name by paleontologists Salgado & José Bonaparte in 1991.Amargasaurus was a large herbivorous dinosaur, a saurischian ("lizard hipped" dinosaur), a sauropodomorph (long-necked, long-tailed plant-eater who walked on four legs), a sauropod (very large herbivore), and a member of the family Diplodocidae (peg-toothed sauropods, which included Apatosaurus, Supersaurus, Seismosaurus, Diplodocus, and others). Amargasaurus is very similar to Dicraeosaurus.

  • In Pokemon series, there is an evolution family including Amura and Aurorus. They both resemble Amargasaurus. In Fossil Fighters Frontier, Amargo is one of the new vivosaurs in the game.
  • Amargasaurus was a new animal introduced to Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter in the June 20, 2012 update. Although the Dinopedia mentions that the spines above the neck can be defense against tall carnivores, it is essentially harmless to the hunter, fleeing on sight. The Amargasaurus is also very fast for its size, making the speed versus mass issue with Stegosaurus seem minor in comparison. According to Tatem Games, it was originally supposed to be slower but was made faster for programming reasons.

  • His card was activated in Loch Ness, Scotland, thanks to the Alpha Gang's submarine crahsing. It was mistaken as the legendary sea monster "Nessie", the Loch Ness Monster. The Alpha Gang tried luring it in by giving their sub a head modeled after Ursula, but it tried to escape, so they reverted to launching a mass of Alpha Droids at it, which angered it to the point of deciding that everything was an enemy, so that when Chomp tried to help it, it attacked him, too. Then Spiny was summoned to battle him, but when he was defeated by Paris, Amargasaurus was knocked away by Chomp and then defeated with Lightning Spear. His card was claimed by Max. Another Amargasaurus was seen in Carnival of Chaos, but its control device malfunctioned because it was hungry. The controller was removed by chibi Chomp, turning him back to a card.

However, in these regions the spines were not bifurcated but flared into a paddle-shaped upper end.[7]:1139 The skull is only incompletely preserved––however, it likely had a horselike, broad snout equipped with pencil-like teeth, based on related sauropods for which more complete skulls are known.[8] As in other dicraeosaurids, the external nares (nostril openings) were situated in the posterior half of the skull, diagonally above the eye sockets, which were proportionally large.[5]:338[9]:341 Additional (fenestrae) could be found surrounding the eye sockets: The infratemporal fenestrae, located below the eye sockets, were long and narrow.[9]:341 Behind the eye sockets were the supratemporal feneatrae, which, in dicraeosaurids, were uniquely small and directed laterally (in contrast to other diapsids, where they were directed upwards).[3]:172 In front of the eyes would have been the antorbital fenestra, although this region is not preserved. Small openings, called parietal openings or fontanelles, can be seen on the backside of the skull. In other tetrapods, these openings are usually seen only in juveniles and they close as the individual grows.
