Aepisaurus > A.elephantinus
(Gervais, 1852) (Also known as Aepysaurus)
Aepisaurus means "elephantine high lizard". Huene,1932
referred A.elephantinus based on a humerus from the French Aptian to
the Titanosauridae
because of some resemblance to the humerus of Laplatasaurus.
(it had dermal plates, armor) Only a humerus [MNHN 1868-242]
was found, its of the slender type and does bear that resemblanche,
but it also resembles that of Camarasaurus
and some brachiosaurids.
Its true family position must await future discoveries.
