The evolution of sauropodomorph dinosaurs and the radiation of the large sauropods are still far from being understood and well-dated. If the first sauropods seem to appear at the end of the Triassic, they don’t start to diversify before the Middle Jurassic. The uncertainty surrounding the definition of the clade Sauropoda is one of the main causes of the lack of consensus regarding the prosauropod – sauropod transition. It is this issue of the “stem-group” of sauropods that is dealt with in this thesis. Some prosauropods are now considered to be sauropods by some authors. These basal taxa differ a lot depending on the authors. The multiplication of the cladistic analyses didn’t solve the problem as they never were compared.The discovery in...
