The many faces (and bodies) attributed to Camarasaurus

The genus Camarasaurus is known from several species
These display differences in the shapes of their skulls and post-crania (Fig. 1). Distinct from the bipedal or tripodal Diplodocus we looked at yesterday, the general build of this genus suggests it did not rise from all fours. Rather elevation of the great neck enabled high browsing, though not as high as its sister in the LRT, Brachiosaurus. 

Once considered a Camarasaurus,
the short-limbed, big pelvis Cathetosaurus (Fig. 2) is certainly related, but distinct from the other camarasaurs.

Not only are the bodies distinct,
so are the skulls (Fig. 3) assigned to this genus.

As in many genera
for which several specimens are known, it is always a good idea to start with just one rather complete specimen in phylogenetic analysis. Add others as your interest grows.
