First record of fossil sauropterygians from the Upper Triassic of Southwestern Spain (Ayamonte, Huelva province)

This work reports the first record of a sauropterygian reptile remain from the uppermost Triassic of the westernmost part of the South Iberian Palaeomargin. The fossil bone, found in the Upper Triassic carbonate succession of Ayamonte (Huelva, Spain), corresponds to a neural arch of a sauropterygian...
