Chubutisaurus (meaning " Chubut lizard") is a genus of somphospondylan sauropod dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous Cerro Barcino Formation ( Albian) of Argentina.^[1] The type species, Chubutisaurus insignis, was described by del Corro in 1975.^[2]^[3] Chubutisaurus had a more robust radius than Venenosaurus.^[4] In 2010 Gregory Paul gave a length of 18 meters (59 ft) and a weight of 12 tonnes (13.2 short tons).^[5] Thomas Holtz estimated its length at 23 meters (75.5 ft) in 2012.^[6]
