The Giving of December.Duriatitan

The holotype fossils of Duriatitan have were previously considered to be species of the genera Ornithopsis and Pelorosaurus,‭ ‬finally settling in Cetiosaurus,‭ ‬by John Hulke all the way back in‭ ‬1874,‭ ‬before finally being named as a distinct genus in a‭ ‬2010‭ ‬re-description.‭ ‬Duriatitan however still suffers from a distinct lack of fossils,‭ ‬making details about this dinosaur hard to surmise beyond the fact that it was a titanosauriform sauropod dinosaur.
