Key Points

  • Brachiosaurus altithorax stands out as one of the largest known dinosaurs, with significant paleontological importance.
  • The holotype FMNH PR 25107 provides crucial insights into dinosaur anatomy and classification from its initial description.
  • Brachiosaurus altithorax remains a notable specimen alongside Giraffatitan brancai due to its distinct characteristics.
  • There is a strong emphasis on the aesthetic elegance of Brachiosaurus and its relative Giraffatitan in paleontological discussions.

Abstract

That's FMNH PR 25107, better known as a the holotype of Brachiosaurus altithorax — the biggest known dinosaur at the time of its description (Riggs 1903) and still for my money one of the most elegant, along with its buddy and one-time genus-mate Giraffatitan brancai.
