The braincase of Amargasaurus cazaui from the Lower Cretaceous of Argentina represents the only dicraeosaurid sauropod neurocranial material known from South America. It has been computer tomographically (CT) scanned and three-dimensional digital reconstructions of the endocranium and inner ear have been made. The cranial endocast is complete, with a volume of approximately 94–98 ml, excluding the dorsal sinuses. The labyrinth of the inner ear is dorsoventrally taller than the lagena, which is conical, and relatively short. The anterior semicircular canal is longer than the posterior and lateral semicircular canals, as in most non-titanosaurid sauropods. When the braincase is oriented with the lateral semicircular canal positioned horizontally, the occipital condyle is oriented posteroventrally, suggesting that the head was held with the muzzle pointing downward. The morphology of the atlas and axis, together with the reconstruction of the osteological neutral pose of the neck, supports this neck and head position, and also indicates the presence of the proatlas in this taxon. The evidence presented here for the skull and neck position of Amargasaurus fits with a midheight food-gathering strategy. The presence of titanosauriforms and rebbachisaurids, together with Amargasaurus, supports the niche partitioning hypothesis for the La Amarga Formation sauropods.
