Sauroposeidon
The press release in 1999 immediately garnered international media attention, which led to many (inaccurate) news reports of "the largest dinosaur ever!". While "Sauroposeidon" likely represents the tallest known dinosaur taxon, it does not hold records for either the longest or most massive. "Patagotitan" or "Argentinosaurus" make better candidates for the title "World's Largest Dinosaur" (presuming to ignore, as is conventional, "Amphicoelias"), though incomplete fossil evidence makes exact rankings impossible.
Andesaurus
Andesaurus ( ; "Andes lizard") is a genus of basal titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur which existed during the middle of the Cretaceous Period in South America. Like most sauropods, it would have had a small head on the end of a long neck and an equally long tail. "Andesaurus" was a very large animal, as were many others of its relatives, which included the largest animals ever to walk the Earth.
