The Amargasaurus comes with a Field Guide filled with information about this fascinating creature. The name Amargasaurus was coined in 1991 by Argentine paleontologists Leonardo Salgado and José Bonaparte, because its fossil remains were found alongside the La Amarga Arroyo in the Neuquén province of Argentina. The word amarga itself is Spanish for "bitter," while sauros is Greek for "lizard." The Amargasaurus lived approximately 130 to 120 million years ago.
