All about dinosaurs, fossils and prehistoric animals by Every part Dinosaur group members.
PNSO have introduced that their subsequent dinosaur mannequin might be a duplicate of Camarasaurus. The brand new PNSO Camarasaurus mannequin might be coming into inventory at Every part Dinosaur within the autumn. Workforce members had recognized about this determine and the cargo of the determine has been organised. Will probably be on the identical cargo because the lately introduced PNSO Baryonyx mannequin. The brand new sauropod has been named Njor the Camarasaurus.
The brand new for late 2024 PNSO Camarasaurus determine (Njor). That is the newest sauropod determine to be launched by PNSO.
PNSO Camarasaurus Mannequin
The PNSO Camarasaurus mannequin demonstrates some outstanding element. Fossils ascribed to the Camarasaurus taxon are the most typical sauropod fossils discovered within the Morrison Formation.
4 species are at the moment recognised. The genus was erected in 1877 (Cope). It’s a member of the Macronaria clade. They’re differentiated from the diplodocids in a number of methods. For instance, the forelimbs are enlarged in relation to their hindlimbs. The chest and shoulders had been held larger than different sauropods. This reached an excessive with macronarians akin to Giraffatitan and Brachiosaurus.
The limb proportions in Camarasaurus usually are not as acute, Camarasaurus is considered a basal member of the Macronaria.

The “Huge Noses”
The Macronaria means “large noses”. The bony frames of the nostrils had been a lot bigger than the orbits (eye sockets). It isn’t recognized why these dinosaurs had this characteristic. The fleshy openings of the nostrils would have been a lot smaller. Nevertheless, within the PNSO Camarasaurus mannequin the nasal space has been raised and made outstanding.
The PNSO Camarasaurus determine has an revolutionary interpretation of the nostrils of a macronarian sauropod.
No matter, the explanation for the massive nasal openings within the cranium, the macronarians had been extraordinarily profitable. While their cousins, the diplodocids declined after the Early Cretaceous and have become uncommon, the “large noses” continued to thrive. Nearly all of the Cretaceous sauropods together with the titanosaurs signify the macronarian lineage.
The brand new for 2024 Camarasaurus mannequin measures thirty-five centimetres lengthy. The top top is a fraction beneath twenty-four centimetres.

Mike from Every part Dinosaur commented:
“We’re wanting ahead to the arrival of Njor the Camarasaurus. PNSO have already launched a number of sauropod figures together with the diplodocoid Amargasaurus and the macronarian Alamosaurus.”
The PNSO Njor the Camarasaurus mannequin is due in inventory at Every part Dinosaur within the autumn (2024).
