Shingopana

Shingopana (meaning "wide neck" in Swahili) is a genus of titanosaurian sauropod from the Upper Cretaceous (late Campanian-early Maastrichtian[2] age) Galula Formation of Tanzania.

[3] Part of the holotype, TZ-07, was discovered in 2002 by scientists affiliated with the Rukwa Rift Basin Project, which was run by Patrick O'Connor and Nancy Stevens.

[3] The holotype was damaged by insect bore holes shortly after the animal died.

Shingopana instead had remnants of a bulbous expansion on the incompletely preserved cervical vertebrae, which probably helped to strengthen its neck.

The holotype was discovered in the Upper Cretaceous Galula Formation of the Rukwa Rift Basin in Tanzania.
