Ameghiniana
Ameghiniana is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering palaeontology published by the Asociación Paleontológica Argentina.
See Auca Mahuevo and Ameghiniana
Anacleto Formation
The Anacleto Formation is a geologic formation with outcrops in the Argentine Patagonian provinces of Mendoza, Río Negro, and Neuquén. Auca Mahuevo and Anacleto Formation are Cretaceous Argentina, Cretaceous paleontological sites of South America, geology of Neuquén Province and Lagerstätten.

Badlands
Badlands are a type of dry terrain where softer sedimentary rocks and clay-rich soils have been extensively eroded.
Cretaceous
The Cretaceous is a geological period that lasted from about 145 to 66 million years ago (Mya).

Lagerstätte
A Fossil-Lagerstätte (from Lager 'storage, lair' Stätte 'place'; plural Lagerstätten) is a sedimentary deposit that exhibits extraordinary fossils with exceptional preservation—sometimes including preserved soft tissues. Auca Mahuevo and Lagerstätte are Lagerstätten.

Luis M. Chiappe
Luis María Chiappe (born 18 June 1962) is an Argentine paleontologist born in Buenos Aires who is best known for his discovery of the first sauropod nesting sites in the badlands of Patagonia in 1997 and for his work on the origin and early evolution of Mesozoic birds.

Rookery
A rookery is a colony breeding rooks, and more broadly a colony of several types of breeding animals, generally gregarious birds.
Sauropoda
Sauropoda, whose members are known as sauropods (from sauro- + -pod, 'lizard-footed'), is a clade of saurischian ('lizard-hipped') dinosaurs.
