The history of Argentinean women in the development of paleoherpetology is very interesting and crucial, evidencing the role of women in the academic field, in the family environment, and the society. Throughout almost 100 years, the investigations carried out by women have been increasing, covering the main taxonomic groups and generating new lines of research with each generation. At present, the paradigm shift of women in the field of vertebrate paleontology in general is not only reflected in their leading role in paleontological field trips and research teams but also in their management activities and their professional development in the international scientific community.
