Resumen:
New material from Bauru Basin (Cambambe Formation, Mato Grosso State), assigned to Gondwanatitan, is described, and a new taxon of titanosaurs, Aeolosaurini, is defined. The presence of this group in cronocorrelated stratigraphic levels of Bauru Basin (throughout São Paulo, Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso states) and in many localities of North Patagonia may suggest the existence of a wide paleobiogeographical province; but it does not necessarily favor the hypothesis of the free-crossing of the sauropods through an hypothetical geographical barrier that would have isolated most of the Bauru fauna in southeastern of Brazil.
