🦴 Known fossil material
Genyodectes is known from only part of its skeleton. This diagram shows which parts of the body have been found.
Parts found as fossils
- Skull
- Lower jaw
- Teeth
Known from the front of the snout and jaws, with teeth in place.
Coloured areas are parts of the skeleton with fossil bones found so far (sometimes just one bone in that area); faint areas have not been found. The outline is a general shape for its group, not this dinosaur's real body.

Genyodectes
There is no write-up for this dinosaur yet, but the scientific data below is complete.
Who lived alongside it
Dinosaurs found in the same rock formation as Genyodectes (Cerro Barcino), so they lived in the same region at roughly the same time.
Tyrannotitan
Chubutisaurus
Patagotitan
Formation data from the Paleobiology Database, counting only each genus's main formations. One formation can span hundreds of thousands to millions of years, so this doesn't mean any two of them ever met.
